He's great in the role.... to not come back.

He's great in the role.
Especially a character who probably should appear in multiple other movies and not just one appearance.Everybody is happy. Affleck had his day as the Bat and even if he did want to return, I doubt he would have that much bargaining power to command $30 million.
As a woman reluctantly approaching “middle aged,” I could not disagree more lol. Regardless, safe to say a lot more than just teens showed up and enjoyed The Batman, based on its box office legs and audience/critic scores.A perspective on whether Affleck is worth a lot of money. I use where my wife works as a sometimes gauge on superhero movies. All the women in her office raved over Ben as Bruce/Batman and were rolling their eyes at Pattinson. So if WB wants more than just teenagers to show up, they might think about Ben.
I like Ben, but his Batman is not worth $30 million.
Ben was rumored to had gotten around 25 mill for BvS. Not Counting JL. More Batmen! Still only one bald Supes.![]()
I mean lettuce keep it honest here. Old man Keaton ain't it, sure its going to be awesome seeing him again, but come on. Matt Reeves is in his own corner building up his own Bat universe, let him be. What does that leave one with, considering some of the DCEU loose ends are still around? Especially if Flash is successful. You got Momoa, Gal, Possibly/maybe/recast/ Ezra...And then what or who? I get this bald Discovery suit is tight with money, but he looks across that lame mouse theme park, and them bastahs is thriving. That connected universe thing can really work, if you do it right. You reset course with flashpoint, but still keep some of the players while bringing in new faces in Supergirl, Batgirl, etc. Batfleck makes sense to me in the larger scale of things. If it doesn't happen that's fine too, but if it does, it wouldn't surprise me.
Hell, I'm only happy FURIOSA got greenlit before this new regime came in.

I mean based on Walter Hamada's own comments about reining in deals, I don't expect they are running to offer $30 million to Ben Affleck to return.
Keep in mind they signed him to direct and star in a new Batman movie and that all fell through, and it went to Reeves instead.
The door has closed.
Keep in mind he was suppose to be gone after JL, but he came back twice, bald man. There is also rumors of WB suits changing his outcome in the FLash flick to keep it open for him to return. These are all rumors still, but I won't be surprised if it does or doesn't happen either way, I'm in.
Over half the rumors I see get reported by the internet are fake.
It was said from the beginning that he came back for The Flash to give closure to the character, which is reinforced by the fact that Keaton takes his place in the DCEU after The Flash in Batgirl. There's no way they'll allow three live action Batmen in films at the same time and they wouldn't go to all that trouble of grabbing Keaton and giving him another chance in the role if Affleck wasn't out for sure. Rumours sound more like wisful thinking. There are a plenty of them ever since the leadership in WB changed again, especially regarding the so called "restoration of the Snyder-verse". Some people just can't let it go.
