they need to stop casting affleck and ryan reynolds. that's a destined box office bomb. idiots.
Variety is reporting that Ben Affleck will be the new Batman. The news, reportedly coming straight from Warner Bros., means that he'll be starring opposite Henry Cavill in the 2015 Batman / Superman movie. Affleck has gained critical recognition for his more recent work — especially with Argo — but Batman lovers will have to block out any memories of Affleck's Daredevil they haven't managed to burn away in an indignant fire of righteous comic fan anger.
The Wrap quotes Warner Bros. president Greg Silverman, who says "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." Zack Snyder, who will direct the film, says of Affleck: "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."

Bad move for sure.. I think Bale turned down a significant amount to re-sign..
pretty much everyone who has been cast as batman has been met with tons of criticism. I'll wait and see but I think he could be a great old, gritty batman.
Awful choice. About as bad as Anne Hathaway was.
I like Affleck but Batman? No.
I don't care about Batman, but Ben Affleck is one of those guys who gets better looking with age
right. like Gary Busey
but as to Batman, I thought better choices would have been either Jason Schwartzman or Michael Imperioli.
the actors are scapegoats to ty directing and writing. Think about Chris Evans and Chris Hemsworth... you really think those two are better actors than Reynolds and Affleck? They're in the same class at worst.
Hopefully this upcoming stupid film will finally put an end to the whole superhero/Marvel/DC film fetish thing.
Enough already.
As long as he doesn't do that crooked sideways smirk he does, I guess...
, I hope he does that lol
AAARRRRRGGGGGG
I was pulling for Giovanni Ribisi
Dafuqusay?
When is the Wonder Woman reboot coming out?
Saw that Refn was rumored to get the gig
they need to give the role to wesley snipes already or bring back blade at the least!
Isn't that dawg in jail?
I think he just got out of jail this year. He'll probably do a cameo on expendables to let people know he's out of prison.
Forget Wonder Woman. There needs to be a Supergirl reboot to help erase that 80s flop.
Here's hoping to Seyfried to land that role.
naw, he's out. he's going to be in expendables 3.
Last time i saw wesley snipes he looked cracked out selling total gyms at 3am...this was 5 or so yrs ago
