The comic con jamboree

Affleck is still Batman!

"Justice League" will be Ben Affleck's second starring role as Batman and the actor said he would make every possible effort to do justice with the character. The Oscar winner said he would love to play the Caped Crusader as long as the makers would allow him, bringing a sigh of relief to many fans.

"I'd love to do it as long as they'll have me. Eventually it'll be somebody else, and I'm sure they'll get somebody great. But while I'm doing it, I'm going to do the best job I can, and really appreciate how lucky I am," he said.

Warner Bros also teased a bit of Aquaman, out in December 2018, starring Momoa in the title role. A snippet of footage from the James Wan-directed film, showed fishermen who are quite surprised when something under the water catches on to the hook and starts dragging the boat along.
