13 Upcoming Superhero Movies That Could Beat Logan
12. The Batman
Release Date: Nothing official yet, but it's unlikely to be before 2019 at this rate.
As disappointing as the DC Extended Universe has been thus far, it's hard to argue with Ben Affleck's magnificent turn as Batman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
As such, fans have been excited ever since for the prospect of the next solo Batman film, especially as Affleck was originally set to direct. While Affleck won't be helming anymore, Matt Reeves (Cloverfield, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes) is an excellent replacement for what will hopefully give Affleck some truly great material to shine in the title role.
Yes, there are clearly scripting issues to work out, and there have been rumours of Affleck angling to exit the DCEU sooner rather than later, but considering how great a Batman he clearly is, he could potentially deliver the best screen Batman to date when given center stage.
