Ben Affleck Seems to Be Returning as Batman in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom

When Ben Affleck announced his departure from the Batman role, it shook the fanbase, especially for those that grew to accept Affleck as Batman after the Zack Synder Justice League cut was released in March of last year. However, it looks like Affleck might be putting on the cowl once more for another DC film. 

Jason Momoa took to Instagram & seemingly confirmed that Affleck will be reprising his role as Bruce Wayne/Batman in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. Momoa took a picture with him & Affleck saying: “REUNITED bruce and arthur,” wrote Momoa, on the post, “love u and miss u Ben WB studio tours just explored the backlot alright. busted on set all great things coming.

There is also a video that shows Momoa jokingly confronting tourists of the Warner Bros. lot & saying: “It’s not a fucking secret anymore is it.” The video shows Affleck in Momoa’s trailer & Momoa says: “Sorry, bro.” to Affleck.
