The Batman director Matt Reeves reportedly wants to bring his War for the Planet of the Apes producer into the project.

Deadline reports Dylan Clark, who worked with Reeves on the upcoming new Apes film, along with 2014's Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, will likely team up with the filmmaker once again on The Batman. Clark is currently working on several movie projects for Universal, including the Scarface remake.

Ben Affleck was set to write and direct the solo Batman film before stepping down to focus solely on playing the DC superhero. But, Affleck is also still producing the movie.

It was reported The Batman was facing a full rewrite and as such, Joe Manganeillo is no longer sure he'll be starring as Deathstroke. With the film's delay, Warner Bros. is looking to fill its slot with one of five DCEU movies — The Flash, Dark Universe, Suicide Squad 2, Gotham City Sirens, or Green Lantern Corps.
