I don't blame him. You get an iconic role that you have passion for and they give you the BvS script... it's got to be frustrating to see what Marvel/Disney is doing and then see what WB is shitting out.

I meant in this current age. The Nolanverse Batman is categorically different from this Justice League Shitty Marvel Clone attempt going on.

Another wrinkle:
Ben Affleck Not Directing Batman
Affleck, who most recently helmed Live by Night, wrote the script with Geoff Johns, and a rewrite was just turned in by Chris Terrio, the Oscar-winning scribe of the Affleck-directed Argo. Our sister publication Variety was first to confirm Affleck’s exit as director.
They conveniently left out that he (Terrio) also helped write BvS.

If it happens it will be a while before it's announced. Probably not at least until after JL is out. They might end up using the Batman solo movie to introduce a new actor.

Wonder Woman Is a Disjointed Disaster Says DC Insider
Could this be true? Makes me nervous but I can see it with DCs track record. I know its a " A friend of a friend" situation but honestly I can see it with all the crap coming out about DCEU

This article is pretty old, and been dismissed as bs clickbait. the movie is so far from release, it will have reshoots and go through numerous cuts based on test screenings.

Well there is something new but the reports are conflicting. The one based more heavily on rumor/conjecture (from Forbes) is saying even the Terrio rewrite might get pitched if the new director, whoever that is, wants to go in a different direction.

They were doing a story on NPR about Batman through the years and how each incarnation is a response to the pervious version. How Adam West's version was done because they couldn't get the rights to boy scout Superman. And how the comics and Keaton Batman got darker in response to West. Then the lightening up with Forever and B&R led to the Darker Nolanverse Batman. Now we're seeing a lighter tone with Lego Batman. Thought it was interesting. The guy was kinda koo koo though, I mean who devotes themselves to all things Batman....

Schnepp gives an interesting thumbnail sketch of the earlier Batman movie properties and their development in this. It's a two parter but the second half is all about the Nolan movies, which most are more familiar with.
