Ben Affleck’s comments come from his recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, and is the first time he’s spoken about leaving his DC role at length. While it was rumored for a number of months before this confirmation, the news will no doubt be disappointing for DC fans who appreciated what he brought to the role. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice might have been critically panned, but Affleck’s performance was largely considered the saving point of the movie. He also popped up briefly in Suicide Squad, before taking on a larger role in Zack Snyder and Joss Whedon’s Justice League. But after all three of those movies were poorly reviewed, it seems that Affleck was ready to say goodbye to the bat.
