With the preproduction nightmare that is the batman. Many directors have been on the running for the place of director for movie, with exit of ben Affleck as director. warner bros are apparently in talks for Matt Reeves (of clover field and war of the planet of the apes fame) to take the directors cheer. but according to the Hollywood reporter, one of the directors in the running, in the unlikely chance Reeves drops out, is celebrated director Ridley Scott, yes the very director that created two master pieces, that cinematically raised the bar for modern science fiction. nothing is really confirmed so lets just wait as the film actually enter pre production.
