About the opening prologue we’ll see in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, the actor had this to say.
“What happens there is one of Bruce’s buildings gets destroyed and he’s trying to save all the people inside the building and he can’t. So he is this angry person who fears what Superman may do. Why are they just going to trust this super-powered alien? What if he does decide to turn against us?”
Ben Affleckis playing an aged and war-weary Dark Knight in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. This will be a much different superhero vigilante than we’re used to seeing on the big screen. The actor went onto explain how the opening prologue in this follow-up toMan of Steelsets Bruce Wayne down a very dark path, one that is usually reserved for villains.
“He’s found himself in a place of harboring a tremendous amount of rage for Superman. So it’s how he got there, and what that’s done to him, and what that’s done to people around him like Alfred, who are, I think, very scared and worried for him. It’s something that’s interesting and new.”
Over the course of this past year, we’ve heard a number of rumors thatBen Affleckwill direct anUntitled Batman Reboot. That may even set up a full trilogy, along with the character’s appearance inJustice League Part 1andJustice League Part 2. While the actor-turned-direct won’t confirm that he is directing, starring and co-writing a solo adventure for Bruce Wayne, he did have this to say.
“If I could make it work, yeah, Obviously that would be like a dream. The trick is, as to any movie, is to ensure that you - if you’re going to direct it - that you can make it good. You’ve got to have the right idea and the right take on it… Broadly speaking, it’s something I’d be open to, for sure. It’s a very exciting idea.”
