It looks like Jason Momoa may have accidentally revealed that Ben Affleck's Batman is set to appear in Aquaman 2. The DCEU, despite its many changes behind-the-scenes, is moving forward with new and returning franchises. First introduced in 2016's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Aquaman is one of the major Justice League characters who is continuing with his mythology in the DCEU. Starring Momoa as the King of the Seas, 2018's Aquaman became a box office and critical success, reaching over $1 billion dollars globally.
Thanks to Momoa's first installment, Aquaman has become an even more popular character globally to the mainstream audience. While the Justice League may not be getting back together on the big screen as of yet, Arthur Curry will return next year for his latest adventure in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. However, it looks like another major hero may be joining the DC icon for the Aquaman sequel.

Already set to return in next year's The Flash, Affleck's Batman may be back more than once in 2023. Momoa shared a picture of himself side-by-side with Affleck at the Warner Bros. studio lot, which appeared to be a celebration of their reunion. However, Momoa also posted a video that seemingly confirms Affleck's Batman is in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. It looks like a tour group at the WB lot spotted Affleck and Momoa on set together, prompting Momoa to outright reveal his co-star's presence. "Well, we tried to keep it a secret," Momoa says in the video. In his caption, he writes, "REUNITED bruce and arthur." Check out his full post below.
