Ben Affleck Opens Up About Playing Batman On ‘Justice League’: “What I Was Bringing To Work Every Day Was A Lot Of Unhappiness”


"What I was bringing to work every day was a lot of unhappiness," the actor says of the experience of the film, which he has called a"nadir."

And I liked my brief stints on The Flash that I did and when I got to work with Viola Davis on Suicide Squad for a day or two,” the actor-director says in a new interview. When asked about drinking alone in his hotel room, Affleck admits he was doing that “quite a bit” on Justice League, which he has also called his nadir. That realization and others led the two time Oscar winner to step back from another stint inside the cowl on The Batman(2022).
