At the Warner Bros. Comic Con 2017 panel, Ben Affleck has assured fans that he is not going anywhere and that he will still be Batman in the future of the DCEU. He stated:
“Batman is the coolest fucking part in any universe, I would be a fucking ape on the ground for Matt Reeves.”
The Batman Movie which was announced last year has experiences a few issues with Ben Affleck stepping down as director to focus more on the role of Batman and the script getting a rewrite. Warner Bros. also announced Matt Reeves as the new director for The Batman Movie and with him recently making the spotlight as a great director with the success of this year’s War for the Planet of the Apes, it looks like things are about to get really exciting for fans with Ben Affleck not going anywhere and with the Batman Movie now in a good position with Matt Reeves set to direct.
The Batman will shine once again in this year’s upcoming Justice League movie which is set to be released in cinemas in November.
