The rumored date that Ben Affleck is speaking of is October 5, 2018, which Warner Bros. recently claimed for an as-yet-untitled DC movie.
Who wants Affleck to dive into his first Solo Batman Movie with a half-baked script?
Though I don’t know if I’d necessarily be able to make that date, because I don’t have a script that’s ready yet.
But from what Ben Affleck is saying, he’s not ready to commit to that date yet, and his reasons are the best possible reason any director should be able to give.
