New Rumor Suggests Ben Affleck Will Appear In Wonder Woman

Wonder Woman is only a few more months away, and the excitement for the film continues to build as the date gets closer.

A new rumor, stemming from some test screenings of the film, suggest that folks should be getting even more hyped about the movie.

According to this rumor (via Flickering Myth), Ben Affleck‘s Bruce Wayne/Batman will have a cameo in Wonder Woman.

Yes, the movie is supposed to take place back in World War I, but the rumor suggests that the beginning of the film will occur in present day, after the events of Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice.

It’s suggested that the film will open in modern-day Paris, where an Diana has an email exchange with Bruce Wayne. He reportedly sends her the photo of her that he found on Lex Luthor’s hard drive, and then asks her to join him in the Justice League. This exchange causes Wonder Woman to dive into the story of the photo, and how she and Steve Trevor fought the war.

While this is just a rumor, it definitely makes a lot of sense. This would be the perfect way to tie Wonder Woman into both Batman v Superman, and Justice League.

Before she was Wonder Woman, she was Diana, princess of the Amazons, trained to be an unconquerable warrior. Raised on a sheltered island paradise, when an American pilot crashes on their shores and tells of a massive conflict raging in the outside world, Diana leaves her home, convinced she can stop the threat. Fighting alongside man in a war to end all wars, Diana will discover her full powers…and her true destiny.
