According to rumors, Ben Affleck would train to play in Batman

Ben Affleck trains hard to play The Batman once again. Incarnated as the Caped Crusader in 2013, Affleck's time with the cape and hood was horrible to say the least. While fans (even the most skeptical of Affleck) generally agree that his performances in the role of Bruce Wayne / Batman are remarkable, the movies around him have been disappointing. Things reached a critical point the day after Justice League, a box office disaster that essentially derailed the entire DC Extended Universe. Superman himself, Henry Cavill, would be away now that he's doing Netflix The witcher.

The future of Affleck as a Batman has long been the subject of much speculation. At one point, he was about to write and direct a solo film for the character, but he entrusted these tasks to Matt Reeves, who has been working on his own screenplay ever since. Viewers remain convinced that Affleck ended up as Batman, especially since the Reeves movie would feature a young Affleck teenager aged 15 to 20 years old. However, Affleck may have the goal of playing Batman in at least one other movie, according to the latest one.

according to Hollywood life, an unnamed source "close to the actor / director" Affleck says his renewed commitment to fitness comes from his desire to play Batman:

"He is fit, not only for his health, but he has a new love to do Batman at least once more. He feels that he is not done with what he wants to do with the character. We talked about replacing him, but he now sees what he could lose and really wants to play the character again. Especially see what Joaquin Phoenix is ​​doing with the character of Joker. "

Although it is likely at first sight that the Affleck training regime is linked to a Batman film, there are a number of reasons he would work. Affleck could simply seek to improve his personal health, and he has other projects in preparation. In particular, it brings together Accounting director Gavin O 'Connor for the sports drama Torrance (formerly known as The was), where Affleck plays a former basketball star trying to become a coach. The filming of this film would begin soon, and it would be logical for Affleck to have an athlete physique for his role. It should also be mentioned The Batman One does not expect Affleck (or whoever, really) to train specifically for a Batman movie.

The fans are desperate to clarify the situation and hope the problem is resolved quickly. For what it's worth, Affleck is still attached to The Batman as a producer, suggesting that he plans to stay involved in some capacity. Some have speculated that Reeves' film could be a prequel to DCEU that covers the young years of Bruce's crime fight, with Affleck telling the main story through a storyline. narration (so it's in the movie, but not in the movie). It remains to be seen what will happen with The BatmanAlthough it would be nice to see Affleck get a better idea – ideally participate in a film that deserves praise. At this point, this seems unlikely, but surprises can be known.
