THE BATMAN Script Is Essentially Finished; Likely To Begin Filming At The End Of This Year
Late last week, a new report broke that the script for Matt Reeves' long-awaited The Batman has basically been finished and turned into the studio, but we still has a ways to go before any cameras roll.
In their most recent Heat Vision newsletter, The Hollywood Reporter ace Borys Kit shared a very promising update about Matt Reeves' The Batman, which has been in various stages of development over the course of the past two years.
When asked when fans would know whether Ben Affleck (Triple Frontier) would reprise his role as the Caped Crusader or if another actor would don the cape and cowl, the ever-reliable Kit coyly revealed, "The script is basically in, although Reeves will continue tweaking it and working on it. And I'm hearing the studio wants to start shooting in November. So let's say between now and then?"
November is a long ways away, so a lot could still happen between now and then, but with this, fans at least have some idea as to when they could realistically expect cameras to start rolling on the long-awaited Batman standalone. However, whether or not Affleck returns to star remains uncertain and at this juncture, it seems increasingly unlikely that he'll be back - although it's also not something that can be entirely ruled out just yet.
