Jennifer Garner Revealed Too Much About Ben Affleck’s Batman vs. Superman: Dawn Of Justice
During an appearance on the reputed chat show Live! With Kelly And Mark in 2014, Jennifer Garner spoke about her then-husband Ben Affleck’s Batman look. While talking about his physique, the Elektra actor said-
“You know, he has put on 30 pounds of muscle and he’s 8 percent body fat. He looks pretty good. It’s a little bit like, ‘Whoa, who are you?’ It feels like I’m having an affair. But I don’t mind, I’m not complaining.”
Ben Affleck as Batman
However, Jennifer Garner went on to spoil the surprise element of the movie unknowingly by revealing too much about it way before its release. While Ben Affleck was busy preparing for his role as Batman under the leadership of Zack Snyder, Jennifer Garner kept his fans updated with the actor’s progress. According to the Argo star, he had to hit the gym for a better physique after he saw his co-star Henry Cavill topless.
Ben Affleck On His Zack Snyder’s Justice League Experience
During an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Ben Affleck appeared for the promotion of his sports drama Air. While talking about his and Matt Damon’s collaboration, the actor also spoke about his experience in Zack Snyder’s Justice League. He said-
The Justice League experience, the fact that those stories became somewhat repetitive to me and less interesting. Yeah, I did finally figure out how to play that character [Batman], and I nailed it in The Flash. For the five minutes I’m there, it’s really great. A lot of it’s just tone. You’ve got to figure out, what’s your version of the person. Who is the guy that fits what you can do? I tried to fit myself into a Batman. And by the way, I like a lot of the stuff we did, especially the first one [Batman v Superman].
Henry Cavill and Ben Affleck in Justice League
He further added-
“Justice League … You could teach a seminar on all the reasons why this is how not to do it. Ranging from production to bad decisions to horrible personal tragedy, and just ending with the most monstrous taste in my mouth. The genius, and the silver lining, is that Zack Snyder eventually went to AT&T and was like, “Look, I can get you four hours of content.”
While talking about Zack Snyder’s filming style, he said-
“And it’s principally just all the slow motion that he shot in black-and-white. And one day of shooting with me and him. He was like, “Do you want to come shoot in my backyard?” I was like, “I think there are unions, Zack. I think we have to make a deal.” But I went and did it. And now [Zack Snyder’s Justice League] is my highest-rated movie on IMDb.”
With an IMDb rating of 7.9 out of 10, Zack Snyder’s Justice League is currently available on Amazon Prime.
