Director Zack Snyder tells the Wrap:
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. I can’t wait to work with him.

bastardsuperstarParticipantJosh Malina (from my beloved Sports Night) had the best tweet so far:
Damon as Robin! Damon as Robin!and as an unreal coincidence, I was reading unrelated crap on nerdbastards, and noticed they had the scoop on this back in February:
What is unexpected is the rumor that Warner Brothers not only wanted Affleck to direct, but also play one of the central leads of the developing Justice League movie franchise, Batman.
Think about that for a moment. Ben Affleck as Batman. Warner Brothers wouldn’t just want him Justice League if he took the role, they’d want him for any follow-up Batman movies and cameos in other DC Comics movies for the next couple of years, if not longer.
. . .
Considering the recent lambasting the Justice League script has been taking on the internet, Affleck might have dodged a Batarang to the career here.August 23, 2013 9:45 am at 9:45 am #549691
CoremodelsParticipantPersonally, for an older/grittier Bat, I would have gone with Viggo Mortensen or Eric Bana.

I actually saw a site recommending Paul Rudd. Paul Rudd???

It’s a damn shame that movie did poorly at the box office due to (mainly) poor marketing.

I heard it did pretty well in dvd sales. It’s a crime when there are like 5 resident evil movies out there, and they don’t make a sequel for this …

DowntownGuy1234ParticipantI still think this casting choice is a evil plot by the Legion of Doom…

SnarfParticipantBetter than Ben Stiller.
