Warner Bros. confirms that Ben Affleck is directing a solo Batman movie
Back in July, we reported that Warner Bros. was developing a standalone Batman movie that would be directed by Ben Affleck, an idea that everyone pretty much recognized as an inevitability. That was before Batman V Superman and its lousy reviews, though, so it stands to reason that some people might be wondering if Warner Bros. is still committed to that plan. However, those people don’t understand just how massive an operation this DC Cinematic Universe is. There are so many separate movies in the works that poor reviews and a moderate downturn at the box office physically cannot stop the wheels from turning. Basically, the entire human race could be wiped out tomorrow, and a Shazam movie would still somehow come out.
