Question

Ben Affleck as Batman

I personally wanted Jeffrey Dean Morgan.

Michael Keaton returning would have been good too imo.

Surprised they went for someone only 2 years older than Bale, given that they've said they wanted an "older" batman, but I think he's a perfect choice for Bruce Wayne.
As long as he can turn on the mean for Batman, something we've not seen him do yet so also something to (hopefully) look forward to, then he'll be great.

Thoughts ? Who would you have had if not Affleck, given that Bale said no?

    Well that's kinda disappointing. I just don't want to see Affleck as Batman. I didn't even like him as Daredevil. There's something off about him in my opinion for both Batman and Bruce Wayne.


    I agree with this 100%.

    The thing that is off for me is I've seen Affleck in 20 other movies so I've never pictured him as Batman and when he plays Batman I will see a little bit of all those roles in his face.

    I think upcoming or unknown actors are better choices for established characters like this. Well known actors will taint the image of the charator if they don't do a A+++ job.
