Rep: Affleck not directing Justice League movie

After Christopher Nolan said he wasn’t intersted in directing a movie based around the Justice League, comic book fans began wondering who could be in the running for the gig. On Wednesday, rumors began to swirl that Ben Affleck could be in the running to direct the movie. Not so fast, say his reps. Apparently, at the moment, Affleck is not in the running to direct the movie. Sources tell Deadline that the actor-turned-director might take a meeting with Warner Bros., but that would be the extent of his involvement.
