Ben Affleck To Direct Batman Solo Movie!

No Comments
Batman - yeah, he is massive

Ben Affleck makes his debut as the new Batman in next year's Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice and we already know he'll reprise the role in the other DC Cinematic Universe venture of the year – Suicide Squad. And we can pretty much assume that he'll appear as the Caped Crusader in a number of movies that Warner Bros and DC have scheduled for release until 2020.

But a rumor has been prevailing for the last few months that they might add another movie to their slot - a Batman solo movie starring Ben Affleck. We've also heard that he might helm the movie as well.

And Affleck, in a recent interview - has shared that he accepted the offer to play Batman because of his desire to direct a superhero movie in future. That statement also seems to indicate that if he's offered to helm a Batman solo, he would undoubtedly grab it.

The Batman solo movie will kick-off its filming after Affleck has wrapped up filming of his adaptation of the Dennis Lehane novel. The site also suggests that the plot of the movie would "˜reflect the Batman character that emerges after Batman V Superman and Justice League'.
