Ben Affleck Slated as the Next Batman

Booo - I'm so over Ben Affleck.

Ben Affleck cast as the next Batman, really? He's been in one too many roles to carry the iconic role. In my Patchy opinion that is. What do you think of Affleck suiting up as Batman? Tell us in the comments below.

The Batman-Superman movie set to be released in July 2015 per Warner Brothers announcement on Thursday.

In the announcement, Silverman stated in a deadline.com news report, “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. His outstanding career is a testament to his talent and we know he and Zack will bring new dimension to the duality of this character.”

While the movie is still untitled, Henry Cavill deservedly will return in the role of Superman. The film will also reunite Man of Steel stars Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane.

I wish he would stick to directing movies. Go Superman!
