This is great news, and hopefully Affleck getting the approval of the original movie Batman, will sooth the ire of those who have been complaining about Affleck landing the role. I myself believe that he should be given a chance to show us what he can do in the role before we condemn him. He is a good actor and he is a Batman fan so he will likely bring his passion for the character into his role. I personally scoffed at the idea of Christian Bale playing Batman in the Nolan movies, all I kept thinking was “really? they are hiring the lead from Newsies and the guy from Little Women?” and look at what he accomplished with the role!
