If this means a potential recasting situation is on the horizon for Matt Reeves’ Batman movie, then we can at least take solace knowing that Ben Affleck’s turn as Christian Wolff offered an unorthodox (though not canon) Batman film.
The parallels between The Accountant and the Batman mythos could go a long way towards easing fan concerns over the possibility of not getting a Ben Affleck-fronted Batman solo movie.
Although the actor remains cast in the role, recent reports have suggested that Affleck is currently looking for a way to “segue out” of his time as the Caped Crusader.
With all of that said, I have to admit: I kind of want to see what Christian Wolff could do as a member of a DC superhero team alongside Henry Cavill’s Superman and Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman.
