Happy 50th Birthday, Ben Affleck!

 

Today marks a big occasion for one of Hollywood’s talented actors/ directors, as Ben Affleck turns 50 years old and is celebrating a lot more than just his birthday! Recently getting married for the second time to former fiancee Jennifer Lopez, the “Good Will Hunting” writer and “Argo” director is also going to reprise his role as Bruce Wayne/ Batman once more in not one but two DC Films next year - namely “Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom” and “The Flash”! Aquaman actor Jason Momoa spilled the beans a couple of weeks back, so fans of Batfleck can look forward to seeing more of the character again - even if it’s just a cameo or short appearance.

Happy Birthday, Ben Affleck!

Happy 45th Birthday Ben Affleck, aka Batman!

Today marks a special occasion for Hollywood and Batman fans, as August 15th marks the 45th birthday of Academy Award winning director and actor Ben Affleck - who plays the dual role of Bruce Wayne and Batman in the DC Extended Universe since his debut on Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice last year.

Announced to play the new version of the Caped Crusader on the DCEU nearly four years ago this month, Affleck's casting was met with criticism and backlash from just about everyone in the comic and movie world - until he debuted in BvS and quickly proved to be one of the main highlights of that film. Accepted and pretty much playing one of the best interpretations of the DC Comics character in the big screen, Affleck would reprise his role as Bruce Wayne and Bats in a cameo role in 2016's Suicide Squad. His next full appearance will be alongside the rest of the Metahuman team he and Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman are gathering together in "Justice League".

To commemorate his performance, here's a featurette on Batman/ Bruce Wayne from the BvS special features included on the Blu-Ray and Digital releases.


Happy Birthday Batfleck! Batman will return in "Justice League" this November!
