Following the news that Ben Affleck is officially no longer on board to direct The Batman, it has been revealed that screenwriter Chris Terrio has rewritten the film's script.
According to Deadline, a rewrite of the initial draft, which was penned by Affleck and DC Comics Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns, has been turned in by Terrio.
Terrio wrote the screenplay for Argo, which earned him an Oscar. He also co-wrote last year's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice with David Goyer, and wrote the screenplays for both upcoming Justice League movies off stories he developed with Zack Snyder.
While Affleck will no longer direct The Batman, he's still attached as producer and will star as the Caped Crusader. It was reportedly a mutual decision between Warner Bros. and Affleck that he no longer direct the standalone DC movie.
Warner has yet to set a release date for the film, but the search for a new director is now underway. For our thoughts on who should take on the task, check out our list of 9 directors who could replace Affleck.
