Actor Ben Affleck has revealed some juicy details about his highly-anticipated appearance as Batman in The Flash. In a recent interview, the actor shared the duration of his cameo as the Caped Crusader in the upcoming DC Comics film. Fans of the Dark Knight have been eagerly waiting to see Affleck reprise his role as the iconic superhero, and this news has only added to their excitement. So, without further ado, let’s delve into the details of Ben Affleck’s highly-anticipated appearance in The Flash.
The Flash movie is promising to be a superhero extravaganza, featuring two versions of Barry Allen (played by Ezra Miller), Michael Keaton’s Batman, and Ben Affleck’s Batman. However, according to a recent interview with Affleck, his version of Batman won’t be featured heavily in the upcoming film.
Affleck stated that he finally figured out how to play the character, and that he “nailed it” in The Flash, but that he only appears for five minutes. The actor also discussed the importance of finding the right tone for the character and figuring out which version of Batman he could play.
While The Flash was originally thought to be Affleck’s last appearance as Batman, the actor is also set to appear in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, which will be released in December of this year. It remains to be seen if Affleck’s planned cameo in Aquaman will be affected by The Flash’s reset of the DC Universe.
Speaking of the DC Universe, The Flash promises to bring a host of superheroes to the big screen, with the addition of Supergirl. Set to hit theaters on June 16, The Flash is shaping up to be one of the biggest DC movies yet.
In the same interview, Affleck also revealed that he had no plans to direct a movie in James Gunn’s DC Universe, despite the filmmaker’s wishes.
It’s worth noting that Affleck’s portrayal of Batman has been controversial among fans and critics. While many enjoyed his performance in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, others felt that the film misrepresented the character. Similarly, Affleck’s appearance in Justice League received mixed reviews.
Overall, The Flash is shaping up to be one of the most highly anticipated superhero movies of the year. Fans can look forward to seeing two versions of Barry Allen, Michael Keaton’s return as Batman, and a brief appearance by Ben Affleck’s version of the character. With the addition of Supergirl and the promise of a reset of the DC Universe, this movie is sure to deliver plenty of excitement for comic book fans.
In the end, it looks like Ben Affleck’s Batman will be making a limited but impactful appearance in The Flash movie. While fans may have been hoping for more screen time, the actor confirmed that this will be his final portrayal of the Dark Knight. Nonetheless, the anticipation for the film remains high, especially with the inclusion of other versions of Batman with Michael Keaton reprising his role as well. The Flash is set to hit theaters on November 4, 2022, and it’ll be exciting to see how the Caped Crusader fits into the Speedster’s time-bending storyline.
