When it was announced that Jennifer Garner‘s Elektra would appear in Marvel’s Deadpool & Wolverine, a lot of fans assumed that rumors of Ben Affleck showing up as Daredevil were true.
Well, according to a new report from inside scooper Daniel Richtman, Affleck will not appear as Daredevil in Deadpool & Wolverine, but he still could show up in the MCU at some point.
According to the insider, Affleck has had discussions about taking on a different role in the MCU. There’s no word on who that character would be, but it won’t be Daredevil.
Now, Affleck was reportedly spotted on the set of Deadpool & Wolverine, but it wasn’t confirmed one who he was playing. So, there’s a chance that Affleck could appear in the Deadpool movie, but not as Daredevil.
I’m just going to throw this out, but wouldn’t it be insane if he showed up as Batman!? There have been rumblings of one DC character who might appear in the movie, but it wasn’t Affleck. But, what if Affleck joined that character?
That’s just my own fan speculation! Affleck could have met with Feige about any number of characters that could appear in the MCU at any point in the future.
I’m really curious to see if anything ever comes of this. If Affleck does appear in the MCU as a Marvel character, what character would you like that to be!?
