"How many more Batmen can we cram into this to ensure it's a hit?"

Did Keaton officially sign on? Maybe he didn’t and Affleck changed his mind (I hear he’s in a better place right now than he was during JL) so now it’s a Batfleck and Robin movie, I mean Batfleck and Flash movie.

In the article he's more or less confirmed.

[Sacred Knight]

.....what? How does that make any sense?

So He’s coming back as Batman alongside Michael Keaton who will also play Batman. Let’s not forget that somehow Robert Pattinson will fit into all this somehow.

I guess all I can say is good on them for getting everyone who left back, I’m sure it will be in smaller roles and appearances but hey they got Affleck and Cavill back.

Flash movie. Three Batmen in it. This tracks. Every day it becomes so much more apparent how lucky the Wonder Woman IP is that Patty Jenkins showed up.

Ben Affleck Will Return as Batman in The Flash: https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood...tiverse-keaton

Don't tell me, they are going to do a hundred different versions of batman like metal.
Anyways, I think this is going to be a flashpoint. Affleck batman will be the current batman. Then flash goes back saves mother.Which leads to Michael keaton batman.Flash fixes his mess. Ben affleck batman gets the letter. We cut to the early life of "The batman" in the next movie.

I'm just waiting for the story to drop of the signing the ghost of Adam West to appear in the movie.

Not that I'm wild about Miller's Flash to begin with, but I feel bad for the character that the most talked about element in his solo film likely won't even be anything connected to his mythos but possibly multiple versions of DC's most spammed cash cow.

Even though Batfleck got most of the hype, at least the build up of hype for BvS was still specifically about those three characters.

[MosSuperman]

Is this still a Flash movie?

[Mr.B]

Based, if it makes pople mad then im happy.

Probably means Cavill will also return.

It would be hilarious if Cavill was the only one who didn’t get to return lmao. But this is basically a Batman movie with Flash in it at this point.

[Flash Gordon]

Just have Keaton do a solo BATMAN: THE RETURN. It could easily exist alongside Matt Reeves' THE BATMAN (which I am unbelievably hyped for tbh).

Hell, HBOMax should let Affleck do a Batman thing too.

As long as the ghost dances.

Strange, didn’t Affleck state that he lost his passion for telling superhero stories? Now I have seen some people assume this news means Affleck is back for the foreseeable future, heck, people are even speculating he may get a HBO Max spin-off show, even though I suspect this is just a send-off for the character before Keaton takes over. I’m betting by the end of the movie, Affleck Batman gets erased or wiped from continuity after Barry resets the DCEU, which then leads to Keaton Wayne becoming the Batman of Barry’s universe.

I'm pretty sure this will happen. This might also tie into the rumour of a possible movie reboot.

It's hard to believe there's been more news about Batman's role in this movie than there has been the for the actual titular character.

So...Affleck pre-Flashpoint, Keaton post-Flashpoint? Or is Keaton Flashpoint Batman?

[Mr.B]

Keaton probably will play Thomas, then reality reboots with Robert Pattinson Batman.

On one hand I agree it's surprising but on the other I should've expected it. Opening up the multiverse just seems like DC's way of just adding more Batmen wherever possible.

But then again when stuff like Shazam and Doom Patrol are underperforming I can't expect DC not to use the one thing that will consistently make them money. Not to say Flash couldn't have done numbers by himself, but for DC that's all the more reason to throw in a few Batmen for even more money.
