Ben Affleck's Batman will join Michael Keaton's Batman in the Flash movie
Ben Affleck’s growing distaste for playing Batman after Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice and Justice League was one of the worst-kept secrets in show business, to the point where nobody was surprised whatsoever when he was finally able to hand off the role to someone else—Robert Pattinson in director Matt Reeves’ The Batman. After finally taking off the cape and the humorously ill-fitting Bruce Wayne suits that didn’t have room for his massive bat-muscles, Affleck even dished a very small amount of dirt about why he had grown tired of playing the Caped Crusader. Then, with Affleck out, we even heard that Warner Bros. was going to bring back Michael Keaton’s Batman from the 1989 Tim Burton movie as a “Nick Fury-like” character who would mentor future DC heroes—starting with an appearance in the Flash movie, assuming it ever actually gets made.
