Ben Affleck has confirmed he is no longer playing Batman, we have some ideas about his replacement
Last month on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Ben Affleck confirmed the rumour that had been going round that he will not return to play Batman in the upcoming film “The Batman” in 2021. He has also stepped down from directing the movie in 2017, handing over to Matt Reeve.
We are not sure why he made this decision but he did tweet that “The Batman” will focus on a younger Bruce Wayne. This leaves us with soooo many options on who could be the next Batman.
We have a few favourites. Share yours if you like!
- Jon Bernthal
Take a look at him, the “Punisher” star has the persona and gravitas to pass for a Bruce Wayne. He wouldn’t even need to get into shape for the role.
- Adam Driver
There’s moodiness about Adam Driver that syncs with how a weird billionaire Bruce Wayne would act if he were a real person. As a plus, he is also former Marine, so chop off his hair and we have Bruce!
- Michael B. Jordan
He made us fall in love with a villain in Black Panther and a troubled boxer in Creed, we don’t care what people think, he will make us fall in love again – and differently – with Batman.
- John Cho
I don’t know about you but John Cho needs to play edgier characters. Here’s to hoping he appears in a movie that doesn’t make us laugh instantaneously.
- Jennifer Lopez
J,Lo can clean up Manhattan and Gotham city if you tell her to. All we want is her in an armored body suit and a cape.
