The latest Batman film isn’t scheduled to be released until June 2021 but one this is for certain, Ben Affleck won’t be donning the mask of the Caped Crusader.
According to Deadline, the newest Batman film is set to feature a younger Bruce Wayne. Which means Affleck, who was originally set to star and direct The Batman and starred in Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice, Suicide Squad and Justice League won’t be considered for the role.
Affleck tweeted his official “passing of the torch” to director Matt Reeves on Wednesday (Jan 30).
