    New BATMAN film to be directed by Ben Affleck

    Multiple insiders (Kroll, Gonzales, Hughes) basically saying this is Reeves' agent negotiating via the press. Doesn't mean he'll sign on, of course, but same thing happened with Coogler and Black Panther. In any case, there's a Batman-as-lead movie coming out in November I care more about right...

    New BATMAN film to be directed by Ben Affleck

    Justin Kroll of Variety is reporting that Matt Reeves has been offered the directing job (and will accept once contract details are hammered out). Personally, I am VERY happy with this.

    New BATMAN film to be directed by Ben Affleck

    I think the stress of being writer/actor/director/producer got to be too much for him. If they go with Matt Reeves (as rumored in the Variety article) then I'm fine with it. (And I actually like this work as director on Dawn of the Planet of the Apes more than any Affleck directed film). In...

    Looking forward to it. BVS spoilers: I'm sure his role in Justice League will make this even more clear. It'll work just fine.
