The supposition is that Warner Bros. is making room for more Batman, including the solo film to be co-written and directed by Affleck.

Variety reports new dates for the two movies:The Accountant, directed by Gavin O’Connor with Affleck starring as an accountant who moonlights as an assassin, was going to be a January 2016 release. Now it will arrive on Octobert 7, 2016. Anna Kendrick and J.K. Simmons co-star in the film written by Bill Dubuque.

We’ll get our first full taste of Ben Affleck as the Dark Knight in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, directed by Zack Snyder, on March 25, 2016. Justice League will begin filming right around the same time.
