Affleck last appeared as Bruce Wayne’s Batman in the 2017 film “Justice League.” He decidedly passed on the role for the most recent standalone “Batman” film.
“I tried to direct a version of [Batman], [I] worked with a really good screenwriter, but kinda just couldn’t come up with a version. Couldn’t crack it. I thought it was time for someone else to take a shot at it. And they’ve got some really good people,” Affleck previously told Jimmy Kimmel during an episode of the late night show.
