While many have grown wary and reluctant in supporting the premise, despite the latest test screenings attesting to the quality of its narrative, what might reinvigorate the lost hope comes in the form of a much-speculated and rumored post-credits scene.
The Rumored Snyderverse Batman Post-Credits Scene
A few months ago, some rumors and reports pointed to how Ben Affleck’s Batman will be featured inThe Flash‘s post-credits scene. In the scene, the Snyderverse Caped-crusader is set to find himself flung into the future. At that point, he calls for the Flash that belongs to his timeline, requesting the Scarlet Speedster to come find him. Furthermore, inside sources affirmed that Ben Affleck’s superhero will be shown in the Knightmare realm.
Many assume that this revelation will kickstart the highly anticipated and eagerly dreamt-ofJustice League 2.As we all are aware by now, theEzra Miller-led endeavor will wholeheartedly bring about and embrace the concept of the multiverse in the realms of the DCEU.

Ben Affleck Trusts Zack Snyder’s Vision

Then in 2020, news surfaced about his one last appearance inThe Flash.Recent reports revealed to the world how Ben Affleck’s iteration of the superhero will also be seen in the Jason Momoa-starrerAquaman and the Lost Kingdom.
With a constant recurrence, fans have grown eagerly hopeful. According to several sources, Affleck has shown a reluctance to a complete departure from the role, as he wants to leave an ever-lasting impression on the franchise. Apparently, the 50-year-old actor has expressed a sentiment of wanting to leave the DCEU on his terms.
