Diddy always goes above and beyond for Halloween, and this year was no different as he channeled his inner Batman.
The Bad Boy boss took to Instagram in the early hours of Wednesday morning (November 1) to share a cinematic — and seemingly big-budget — video of himself as “The Darkest Knight.”
The clip opens with Puff dressed in full movie-quality Batman attire and perched on top of a Batmobile in an underground garage inspired by fellow billionaire Bruce Wayne’s.
“I’m tired of mediocrity. Of shortcuts. Of the greed. Of empty suits telling us that we don’t deserve more,” he says in a gravelly-voiced monologue.
A young boy then gives Diddy some words of motivation before he heads out into the streets of New York City (a.k.a. Gotham City) and threatens a man in a suit.
The elaborate outfit reveal came after Diddy claimed that Warner Bros. — who have produced every Batman movie since 1992 — banned him from dressing up as the Joker for Halloween, which he did last year.
“Breaking Halloween news,” he said in an Instagram video. “Last year after I did the Black Joker, I got a bunch of emails from the studios telling me to not be the Joker anymore, that I was breaching the trademark.
“So I don’t know what I’m gonna be this year. But I will say, to the muthafucka that took all this time, we talking about sending me six full papers — I’m not even gon’ show the business on the papers — but to tell me not to be the Joker, I wanna tell you, you win.
“I’m not gon’ be the Joker this year, just because your ass had enough time to fuck up my muthafucking Halloween.”
Diddy first revealed the legal letter on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Monday night (October 30) before putting Warner Bros. on alert.
“Last year I was the Joker, and I actually got a letter from the studio that I can no longer be the Joker because they said it broke their trademark that I did it too good, I swear,” he said. “I have this letter from Warner Bros.
“Tomorrow, Warner Bros. lawyers, can you see me? Put this camera on me right here. Head of legal, tomorrow, watch what I do.”
When Diddy dressed up as the Joker in 2022, various clips surfaced of him terrorizing the streets of Los Angeles à la Health Ledger in 2008’s The Dark Knight.
The Harlem-bred mogul looked unrecognizable as he donned a purple coat, green hair and white-and-red clown makeup, while brandishing a fake submachine gun and grenades.

This is a classic example of what happens when you have unlimited income and time on you hands. Carry on!!!
Stop referencing towards me how many words we exchange in life 45?
Find a drawer or a shed
WTF u talking bout?
Batman isn’t a butt pirate tho. He’s better of dressing as Gay face ….. I mean ClayFace.
That joker story is 🧢. Why him, because he’s rich? What about all the other people who dressed up as joker?
“Tired of the greed. Of empty suits telling us we don’t deserve more”. I never knew it was so hard being worth hundreds of millions. I guess it’s only greedy when it isn’t yourself being as rich as a very small handful of people worldwide. BTW, I don’t hate ppl for being rich. Many have provided great inventions and products that changed the world. But how can he talk about greed? He’s greedy as hell.
He borrowed that batmobile from his boy Keefe D. Reports say Keefe stipulated no laying on the hood, no dancing on the hood and usher bet not be Robin.
You should listen ot Hit em up! The rapist Tupac was not a saint. So Fck Tupac, and all of West Coast. They all ruined, dead or in prison. Thuglife, if you dont like it too, as Tupac would have said, fck you too.
Thanks for the advice. That song is crazy. I’d never heard that before. That changes everything for me. I had no idea. Before this I thought pac was a saint. Thank you Xavier! Oh and fuck you too!!! You think I never heard hitem up? And you thought if I listened to it it would change my opinion on pac?! Fuck you too! By the way you don’t know what I think of pac to begin with. I didn’t say anything about 2 pac. So again fuck you too! The post was poking fun at puffy and Keefe d relationship that included puffy using a keefe d low rider in an usher video back in the day in which Keefe got the car back with hood damage, come up with an original thought and post it yourself instead of replying some ol bullshit on other people’s shit. In closing xavier, fuck you too!
