Ben Affleck says he is in no rush to make his Batman standalone movie because he doesn’t want it to be “mediocre.”
Affleck is set to direct, write and star in the film which has the working title The Batman, and on Monday he gave an update on its lack of progress at the New York Times Facebook event:
“We still have to get a screenplay. I’m a real believer in not reverse-engineering projects to meet a window or a date. Rather, when you get the right story, the right idea, then you do the movie.”
“I’m not in any hurry to jam a mediocre movie down the pipe. There’s nothing I’d love more than to direct a standalone, iconic, great Batman movie.”

Affleck continued by saying that he hopes for the film to stand-up to the previous ones that were revered by fans:
“Chris Nolan did three really good movies. I want to make sure we get the great version—one that’s worthy of the tradition of Tim Burton, Chris Nolan and [Batman actor] Christian Bale.”
Before Affleck makes his solo Batman outing, he will star in Justice League which hits theaters in November 2017. Check out the trailer below:
