Ben Affleck who starred in ‘Batman vs. Superman’ which received mixed reviews, is set to write, direct, and star in an upcoming Batman solo film within in the DC Cinematic Universe. The Oscar-winner is not looking to just toe the line and cash in on the established comic book brand.
‘The Batman’ is slated for a release in 2017, but there is unrest on the DC side apparently over a recent interview where Affleck stated he’s not willing to make a “mediocre” film with the classic superhero. Speaking with Entertainment Weekly recently who dubbed the veteran actor one of their Entertainers of the Year, Affleck laid out his discontent with accpeting medocrity going forward as the Caped Crusader.
“I’m still working on the script. I’m not going to write and direct anything that I don’t think is good enough to be made. I’m definitely going to make sure I have something that is special-there’s not enough money in the world to make a mediocre version of Batman worth it.”
Let’s hope Affleck can deliver for all of us who left BvS a little disappointed. Personally, I thought Affleck’s Batman delivered all the Gotam City goods.
