Ben Affleck Is the New Batman
Ben Affleck is Batman.
The actor will replace Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne in the upcoming untitled Superman-Batman feature for Warner Bros., the studio announced Thursday.
Affleck becomes the eighth actor to play the Caped Crusader, following Bale, George Clooney and Michael Keaton.
"We knew we needed an extraordinary actor to take on one of DC Comics' most enduringly popular Super Heroes, and Ben Affleck certainly fits that bill, and then some," WB president Greg Silverman said in a statement.
Directed by "Man of Steel" filmmaker Zack Snyder, the Superman-Batman feature will open worldwide on July 17, 2015, with Henry Cavill, Amy Adams and Diane Lane reprising their roles.
"Ben provides an interesting counter-balance to Henry's Superman. He has the acting chops to create a layered portrayal of a man who is older and wiser than Clark Kent and bears the scars of a seasoned crime fighter, but retain the charm that the world sees in billionaire Bruce Wayne," Snyder said in a statement. "I can't wait to work with him."
The announcement of a Batman-Superman film was revealed last month at Comic-con to much excitement of fanboys, who will surely be watching as the studio begins to assemble its Justice League.
The irony of Thursday's news is that at one point Warner Bros. was interested in having Affleck direct the "Justice League" movie and his participation in this film will now spur interest if whether his casting means a possibility of directing that film.
The Boston native recently upped his Hollywood power when he won the Best Picture Oscar for "Argo."

Espero que seja boato...
Ainda duvido que possa ser pior que o Batman do Bale.

Heresia!
Joguem o Billy na fogueira!
Po, é sério que vocês gostaram da interpretação com a voz de bueiro que o Bale fez?
Cara, a voz do último Batman é uma das paradas mais massa da trilogia.

E não bastava o Ben Affleck ter sido uma merda de Daredevil né? Porra... E dizem que cogitam ele pra dirigir a Liga da justiça.
Também não gosto do Batman do Bale não...
Bale melhor Batman que existiu me perdoem! Muito próximo dos quadrinhos.
No mais só Jesus na causa pro Aflech fazer algo... fiquei sabendo que fizeram até abaixo assinado nos EUA contra ele pelos fãs do Batman.
foi feito abaixo assinado mesmo.
mas o oscar que ele ganhou tá pesando pro lado dele, isso na cabeça do pessoal da warner.
pelo menos, não é o Ryan Reynolds, que esta cogitado também.
