Plot Rumours For The Batman
We don’t know much about the plot details of Matt Reeves’ Batman yet. However, rumours suggest that a younger version of Batman will be in focus in the film. Reports even suggest that the studio is hunting for an actor in his mid-twenties ranging to early 30s. The film is also rumoured to have The Penguin as the villain. The film, however, will not be based on Frank Miller’s Batman Year One comics. It will focus on Batman as the world’s greatest detective.

Aquaman is now playing in theaters. You can find its official synopsis below:
From Warner Bros. Pictures and director, James Wan comes an action-packed adventure that spans the vast, visually breathtaking underwater world of the seven seas, “Aquaman,” starring Jason Momoa in the title role. The film reveals the origin story of half-human, half-Atlantean Arthur Curry and takes him on the journey of his lifetime—one that will not only force him to face who he really is, but to discover if he is worthy of who he was born to be… a king.
