DC Films' CEO Walter Hamada just announced that they will produce two different Batman film series. One starring Robert Pattinson and the other will be in the DCEU continuity.
TEXT:
Robert Pattinson isn't going to be the only Dark Knight in town when The Batman is released, as the plan at DC Films moving forward is to produce not just one, but two separate Batman movie franchises running simultaneously. In a recent interview with The New York Times, DC Films president Walter Hamada spoke about these plans, confirming that a new actor will be brought in to replace Ben Affleck in the DCEU while Pattinson will still play the superhero in unconnected movies of his own.
"I don't think anyone else has ever attempted this," Hamada said of DC Films' plan for bringing two different Batmen to theaters on a consistent basis. "But audiences are sophisticated enough to understand it. If we make good movies, they will go with it."

I wish they would just give up Batman and do a Lobo film instead

I wish they would just give up Batman and do a Lobo film instead Michael Bay won't do it for less than $200m is the only holdup apparently. I'm being serious, last update was they were looking at Bay to direct. Which actually isn't a bad choice.

Two actors playing the same hero role at the same time has always been something I wouldn't mind happening.

But I thought Batfleck was coming back for the Flash movie so why not have him come back as the DCEU Batman. Unless they are planning a Batman Beyond type thing

I'm very much looking forward to the upcoming Matt Reeves movie. The trailer to The Batman was superb.
Not that interested in the DCEU as a shared universe, however. I was never that keen on the Justice League. I'm open to it if they can come up with a strong script and hire a quality director, but again not that enthused on a continuation of DCEU Batman.

I just want them to give Batman a rest for a while. I feel like there's just nothing left to do with the character.
