DC Studios THREAD - GunnVerse Begins - Superman Teaser Out Now - 07/11/25

Affleck as batman?!

I don't know what's more disturbing this, or the fact that Bale may have turned down $50 mil to reprise the role...

Meanwhile Avengers 2 is cooking...

that reports apparently stems from an suit over at Legendary saying at a party that Bale could pick up around that much by just popping up for "20 minutes" in a Superman flick

Welp, there goes that movie...

 

[bayyrd]

Batman with a Boston accent...

"RT @DragonflyJonez: Affleck gonna be like "It's the Jokah! Or the Riddlah! Rahbin! Call Commissionah Gahden!""


smh

lmao

 

[Deleted member 37467]

I just can't picture him as Batman, .

Who knows, though.

I remember people feeling iffy about Heath as the Joker and Anne as Catwoman and they turned out to be fantastic.

This is Snyder... NOT Nolan.

I know, I'm trying to be optimistic here, .

LOL if Bale really tuned down 2.5 million per minute of screen time, though.

 

[the dauqs]

This is Snyder... NOT Nolan.

Pretty much.

I haven't like anything announced about this project. Everything seems rushed and forced.

DC has officially ruined their universe before it even started. I'm dying to hear Affleck's batman voice :x

 

[pr0phecy718]

Welp, there goes that future justice league movie...

SMH

Will still see the movie tho

 

[blakep267]

I mean, meh. Im not a particular fan of Bale or Cavill in their roles. SO I dont really think Affleck could do but so much worse

 

[CP1708]

I'm in favor.

Gone Baby Gone
The Town
Argo
The Company Men

Ben has been sharp recently. I like the move.

 

[robinvandamn]

probably is he's never been charming or threatening in any role he's played in his career

 

[rico x hood]

Sooo Batman is going to have a Baahston accent now?

 

[tsx24]

guys did u hear that?


the sounds of million face palms all over the world

[Maximus Meridius]

He was great in The Town. Maybe he can carry some of that into this movie. 8 years ago he woulda been a terrible pick for Batman but now I think he might pull it off.

I just can't picture him as Batman, .

Who knows, though.

I remember people feeling iffy about Heath as the Joker and Anne as Catwoman and they turned out to be fantastic.

This is Snyder... NOT Nolan.

This is true though, we'll see.

 

[36Hypno]

I am not thrilled but I'll give it a chance, Affleck seems more focused these days.

Everyone hated Daniel Craig when he was casted as James Bond too but people would argue that he is probably one of the (if not the) best to play Bond. Then there is Heath as Joker and Anne as Catwoman.

This. I can't see him as Batman but I'll reserve judgement.

 

[spidermachine916]

ffs...

 

[illmatic34]

I just don't see the charm of Bruce Wayne in Affleck. He's gotten better but I don't see this "layered" portrayal they're talking about.

 

[raider5]

I just can't picture him as Batman, .

I remember people feeling iffy about Heath as the Joker and Anne as Catwoman and they turned out to be fantastic.

Forreal. I remember when Heath was casted everyonewas talking about brokeback mountain and 10 things I hate about you.

Anne Hathaway had just as much criticism when casted.

Curious to see who the villain will be. Everyone's talking about Lex but nothing has even been rumored regarding a villain

 

[pr0phecy718]

refer back to seymorecake's quote

 

[tsx24]

this is so surreal. feels like when michael jackson died. just can't be real life

 

[frink85]

im one of the many who cant picture him as batman, but ill give it a chance. he def needs to bulk up though.

i told my friend who told me earlier, if theyre truly going the frank miller Dark Knight Returns story, then an older batman is necessary. so, im patiently waiting to see how they do this

 

[am1x90xnike]

We will see.

 

[thedeek]

You guys doubting Affleck will be the same ones praising him when the movie comes out talking like "I was always in support of Affleck."

You all did it with Anne Hathaway

You all did it with Heath.
