Thanks for sharing this hardball but I am not believing anything at this point until I hear it straight from the mouth of Ben Affleck himself 'cause there have been WAY too many rumours that Ben Affleck is leaving the DCEU going back to 'Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice' which have all turned out to be untrue and it is like all the rumours that TNA was closing down that have been floating around on the internet for the past decade but every year it keeps going and going or 'Supernatural' and how for 5 years after Season 5 numerous sites kept reporting it was going to be cancelled but they gave up after Season 11 and now the show is up to Season 14. When something has its haters like the DCEU has there are going to be rumours like this from people wanting him to leave and the DCEU to fail but at this point they could reboot the DC movies and make Oscar award worthy movies and will still get a ton of hate from peoplewho only want one company to stand tall which is why 'Man of Steel' and 'Batman vs Superman' were two of the most hated movies online long before they were released. Yeah I wont believe anything until Affleck himself says it or WB. That's the best thing to do. There are just too many rumours coming out at this point and more than half of them always turn out to be untrue. Just look back at the rumours of Batgirl and Nightwing being in 'Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice.'

Honestly they need to wait at least 20 years before trying again. The brand is too damaged. That's insanity. Look at all the good will they had after Wonder Woman did well. If Justice League had done well also the ship would have been "steered" right. If it had made a billion dollars everyone would be saying "DC is great now! Its all fixed!"
The problem is that they take one step forward and two back. If they get on track and STAY on track they'll be fine. Aquaman looks hopeful.
But they need a SOLID plan; and a leader like a Kevin Feige; and unfortunately Geoff Johns (though I'm a fan of his) is not that person; nor is Charles Roven, nor was Diane Nelson.

It’s just really sad to me. We wanna see:
Batfleck interact and fight alongside Robin, Nightwing, Batgirl am Red Hood. Batfleck fight Red Hood. Batfleck and Leto Joker dialogue. Batfleck fight Deathstroke. Batfleck and Thomas Wayne dialogue.
And we won’t be seeing it, I guess.

If this due to Reeves wanting to do this, then this proves the problem with getting "auteur" directors to do these movies. They just don't WANT to have their films be a part of a bigger Universe, they want it under their control and theirs alone to do whatever they want with no one else touching it.
They're not team players. And that's exactly the opposite of someone you want doing a Shared Universe picture.

While I'm somewhat tired of all these reboots of Batman, what I'm more tired of is this gloom-doom-apocalypse-ten-minutes-ago atmosphere that seems to have taken over the DCEU. Just because Batman is the Dark (as in moody, gloom-soaked, humorless) Knight, doesn't mean every other character has to be written the same way. Some of the humor in Justice League seemed to me a step in the right direction.
To get back on topic: I agree that giving credence to rumors can be counterproductive and frustrating. As others have said, let's just wait and see what Ben Affleck himself has to say.

Hope the rumors are true. I couldn't stand Affleck as Batman . He looked ridiculously stupid in the costume (bloated/and full of botox) . And it seemed like he was just phoning it in and didn't want to be there haha.
Hopefully Reeves goes with a younger/hungrier actor to be Batman . I think Garrett Hedlund would be PERFECT as Bruce Wayne / Batman . He is 6'2, in great shape, good enough actor, has a cool deep voice & can do the whole "brooding" thing really well . Just throwing it out there.
