Now that a new Rush Hour movie is confirmed at Paramount and Warner Bros., it’s worth noting that director Brett Ratner actually has a previous working relationship with Zack Snyder, who directed several DC films.
And that connection goes right back to the SnyderVerse era we been told is in play to be returning.
RatPac Helped Finance Batman v Superman and Justice League
Ratner’s company, RatPac Entertainment, helped fund several Warner Bros. movies, such as Zack Snyder’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and the original theatrical release of Justice League.
That financial link puts Ratner inside the same pipeline Snyder used throughout his DC run.
Now that Ratner is back in the news – and reports say Trump is supporting his return – it creates another surprising connection between what’s happening now and the DC Universe films overseen by Zack Snyder.
Fans Question Trump’s Support for Affleck’s Batman — But It’s Real
With the ongoing discussion about the Rush Hour storyline, some fans started questioning if Donald Trump genuinely enjoys Ben Affleck’s portrayal of Batman.
The answer: it’s real. And confirmed.
Trump Tweeted Support for Affleck in 2013
Records reveal that Donald Trump tweeted positively in August 2013 when Ben Affleck was chosen for the role. He complimented the casting choice, and the tweet gained a lot of attention back then.
Trump tweeted at the time, urging people to relax and expressing confidence that Ben Affleck would be a great Batman.
Everyone should calm down. @BenAffleck is going to do a great job as Batman.

Affleck Also Confirmed It on National TV
During an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Ben Affleck revealed that Donald Trump personally endorsed his portrayal of Batman. An accompanying AI-generated video description highlighted this “surprising endorsement” from Trump.
No matter your political views, the evidence clearly shows Trump supported Ben Affleck as Batman even before discussions started about reviving the SnyderVerse.
Trump is Batman
Here is the video from 2016 where a little boy asks Trump if he is Batman.
Trump’s response? “I am Batman!”
Why This Matters to SnyderVerse
The combination of:
- RatPac’s financing of Snyder’s DC films
- Trump urging Paramount to revive action properties
- Trump supporting Affleck’s Batman
- Snyder returning to Instagram with DCEU images
- The Industry chatter about WBD bids and Paramount Skydance
…has everything lining up.
The ongoing discussion about the SnyderVerse continues to attract those originally involved, and many are pointing out this isn’t a coincidence.
