It's definitely true. WB issued a press release today.

Um, source...it'd be nice to see where this quote came from.
http://herocomplex.latimes.com/movie...-july-17-2015/ or http://variety.com/2013/film/news/be...an-1200586881/ would have been nice.

Not sure how I feel about this. Hopefully he'll be a good Batman.

George Clooney is no longer the strangest Batman casting.
Well to be fair, I wouldnt have expected most of the live action actors to be cast as the bat. Im just crossing my fingers and hoping Ben will surprise me.

Its interesting the fact that Ben Affleck actually played Superman in a previous film. As George Reeves as Superman.

Not a BFD, he's gonna be in costume the whole time probably.
But, like everyone else, I don't get it either. They normally cast unknowns for superhero stuff, so it'll be kinda weird seeing Cavill and Affleck interact as Clark Kent and Bruce Wayne. |

Ben Affleck could be a good Batman. He seems to be hit and miss though with his roles.

I thought I had breaking news and you guys are already on it.  Being 43 at release of the first film Batman will appear I would have thought WB would want to go a little younger though he was mentioned as a director for Justice League. I am not really sure what to make of this. He is okay as an actor and he does have a previous superhero outing that viewers claim does not hold up well(I never saw it not being a DD fan). Did anyone else think it was a joke or a rumor when first reading the headline? It seems sudden and an odd hour to break.

Jon Hamm would have been an excellent choice.

My initial interest in this film is fading. It's not the end of the world, it's just kind of a blah announcement.

With Ben portraying George Reeves/Superman in "Hollywoodland" it's gotten to the point that they should just go ahead and cast him as the entire JLA.

I don't really have a full opinion on this news since I never watched Daredevil. However, I'm willing to give this guy the benefit of the doubt. Remember what people said about Michael Keaton BEFORE the 89 movie was released?

Calling it now. Ben Affleck as Batman is going to be like Chris Evans as Cap. It's a choice that divided a lot of people, but the actor ended up embodying that role.
Honestly a lot more excited for this. |
