We recently reported on a rumor that Ben Affleck might be hanging up the cape 'n cowl after Justice League, and his brother Casey has now added a significant amount of fuel to the fire.

Although Ben did seemingly confirm (or at least, suggest) that there was no truth to the rumor a couple of weeks ago at SDCC, Casey was a guest on WEEI’s sports radio show today and sang a slightly different tune.

When asked outright if his brother would return for the planned solo Batman flick, Affleck replied, "he’s not gonna do that movie, I don’t think.” However, when told that this might be considered breaking news, he did imply that he might be joking.
