The DC Universe is preparing to receive a new actor who will play Batman, so the returns of Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck are practically ruled out.
One of the projects of Chapter 1, Gods and Monsters, that the DC Universe will have is The Brave and the Bold, a film that will present Batman, and although it is not a surprise, James Gunn finally revealed who the Dark Knight will be in his ten-year plan, where the names of Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck are ruled out.

Gunn is a twitter user who is constantly active, and in his spare time he answers some questions that fans have, some of them even shared the theory that George Clooney would return to DC Comics to play the Batman.
Given these assertions, the co-president of DC Studios, James Gunn, categorically denied that George Clooney is the Batman in the DC Universe.
Absolutely not.

“Absolutely not”.
This answer led to another question about the identity of Batman in The Brave and the bold, if this will be Michael Keaton or Ben Affleck, both playing the same role in The Flash.
New actor.
—James Gunn (@JamesGunn) February 11, 2023
(Batman will be)”a new actor”, whose identity is unknown, or the possible candidates to embody the hero created by Bill Finger and Bob Kane, who debuted on the pages of Detective Comics #27 (May, 1939).
Will Ben Affleck direct The Brave and the Bold?
This new actor will join his name to those of Adam West, Michael Keaton, Val Kilmer, George Clooney, Christian Bale, Ben Affleck and Robert Pattinson, who have brought Batman to life on the big screen.
Ben Affleck could direct a project in the DC Universe planned by Peter Safran and James Gunn, but this has not been officially defined.
The only film that has a set release date in this DC Universe is Superman: Legacy, which will hit theaters on July 11, 2025.
The Brave and the Bold will be the next release after the Man of Steel tape, but its release to movie theaters has not yet been defined by the new DC Comics directive.
