Actually, Ben Affleck hung his bat mask on the famous nail. But now all signs point to a renewed comeback as Batman. At least that's what fellow actor Jason Momoa suggests with a revealing photo.
Reunited, Bruce and Arthur
The "Aquaman" actor is currently at Warner Studios in Los Angeles to shoot the second part of his star role. Affleck was also evidently there: "Reunited, Bruce and Arthur.love and miss you […] Great things are coming. Aquaman 2." The two previously stood side by side in their superhero costumes in the 2017 film Justice League.
US media such as "The Hollywood Reporter" also interpret the post as proof of Affleck's permanent return as a bat man alongside Momoa. Actually, Affleck announced in 2019 that he would no longer slip into the Batman role. Nevertheless, to the surprise of many, he already returns as Bruce Wayne in the film "The Flash", which was repeatedly postponed.
"Aquaman 2" will be in cinemas even before "The Flash"
Most interesting: "The Flash" was announced in June 2023 even later than "Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom", which is scheduled to hit the cinemas in March 2023. Affleck has appeared as Batman three times, in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Suicide Squad and Justice League.
Before he announced his departure from Gotham City, he was discussing his own, pure Batman film, in which Affleck would direct as well as star. However, it never came to that. 'The Batman' was eventually made into a film, starring Robert Pattinson and directed by Matt Reeves, and was released in theaters this year.
