    Ben Affleck Is the New Batman!

    "The actor will replace Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne in the upcoming untitled Batman-Superman feature for Warner Bros., the studio announced Thursday.

    Affleck becomes the eighth actor to play the Caped Crusader, following Bale, George Clooney and Michael Keaton.

    “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,” WB president Greg Silverman said in a statement.

    Directed by “Man of Steel” filmmaker Zack Snyder, the Batman-Superman feature will open worldwide on July 17, 2015, with Henry Cavill, Amy Adams and Diane Lane reprising their roles.

    “Man of Steel,” which opened this past June, has earned over $650 million at the global box office.


    “Ben provides an interesting counter-balance to Henry’s Superman. 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,” Snyder said in a statement. “I can’t wait to work with him.”

    The announcement of a Batman-Superman film was revealed last month at Comic-Con to much excitement of fanboys, who will surely be watching as the studio begins to assemble its Justice League."

    I know he's a great actor I just don't know if he is Batman material. Bale was great, and of course Michael Keaton too.
    We'll see.

    So what is he now, the Darebat?

    Who beats criminals with his bat-shaped cane at night,
    while prosecuting Lex Corp. for stealing Wayne Enterprises' tech as a lawyer by day?

    We'll see if he can outshine the previous ones. I think his Argo was okay, so. We'll see.
