After nearly 30 years since he last donned the cape and cowl in Tim Burton’s Batman Returns, Michael Keaton returns to his most famous role.

Apparently, Michael Keaton becomes the DCEU’s new Batman.
Ben Affleck has been confirmed to return as his version of Batman in The Flash.

Our insiders claim this is accurate.
Sources added that Michael Keaton will have a substantial role in The Flash; in other words, it’s no mere cameo.

Warner Bros. lost faith in The Flash after Joss Whedon’s Justice League tanked.
Certainly, Miller’s off-screen confrontation with a fan caused tremendous concern.
If anything, Michael Keaton saved The Flash. Going forward, Warner Bros. will focus on Michael Keaton in the marketing.
Unless Michael Keaton can time travel back to 1989, he won’t replace Ben Affleck’s Batman.
