There have been reports that Matt Reeves wants Jake Gyllenhaal to replace Ben Affleck as The Batman, while Jon Hamm, who worked with Ben Affleck on The Town, has also expressed interest in taking on the iconic Caped Crusader.
For now, though, Batman fans will have to take solace in knowing that Matt Reeves is still hard at work on The Batman.
Last month, director Matt Reeves was fending off rumors that he was exiting Warner Bros.’ stand-alone movie The Batman, which still has Ben Affleck attached to star, and now the filmmaker has offered a new, yet very brief update.
Ben Affleck was originally set to both star in and direct The Batman, while working from a script that he co-wrote with DC Films president Geoff Johns.
