The Batman gets a rewrite to go with its new director
Warner Bros. and DC are currently in the process of finding a new director to replace Ben Affleck on The Batman. And while they conduct that search, the studios have also decided they might as well tinker with the film’s script while they’re at it. According to a Forbes report, the current draft was written by Argo’s Chris Terrio, but now it’s going to “undergo substantial changes” and might even get completely rewritten. The extent of the rewriting will probably depend on whoever the new director is, though, since they’ll almost certainly want to look over things and tailor them in a direction that fits their sensibilities
