While Affleck has officially stepped down from directing the Batman movie which he had been attached to do, he is still, officially, attached to star in it.
If Affleck is planning on playing Batman again, it would be unfortunate if the reason he ended up not doing so was because of the insurance company.
Up until now, it’s been far from clear whether or not Ben Affleck would ever return to play Batman so all this could actually be a moot point if the actor never had any intention of donning the cowl again.
Several reports have indicated that was the case, but so much has stayed in the shadows regarding the future of DC’s film universe that we just don’t know most of what is happening and what isn’t and what is currently planned for the future.
