BEN AFFLECK MULING GAGANAP BILANG BATMAN SA “THE FLASH”

MULING isusuot ni Ben Affleck ang kanyang itim at mahabang kapa sa kanyang pagbabalik bilang Batman sa pelikulang “The Flash” ng Warner Bros.

Ito ang ibinunyag ni Director Andy Mushietti nang makapanayam ng Vanity Fair. Sinabi niya natanggap na ni Affleck ang script noong nakaraang linggo at pumayag na ito na sumali sa nasabing project.

Mas lalong nagningning ang career ni Affleck bilang Caped Crusader noong 2016 sa “Batman vs Superman; Dawn of Justice” at  2017’s “Justice League.”

Tampok sa “The Flash” si Barry Allen na ginampanan ni Ezra Miller kung saan mapupunta ito sa ibang dimensiyon at makikilala ang iba’ibang bersyon ng DC’s heroes.

Plano ni Affleck na mag-direct at maging bida sa Batman film sa Warner Bros subalit binitawan niya ito noong 2017, at ibinigay ang trabaho kay Matt Reeves. Nagdesisyon din siya na hindi bumida noong nakaraang taon, na napunta ang role kay Robert Pattinson. Inanim ni Affleck na tinalikuran niya ang pelikula dahil sa kanyang drinking problem.

Pinuri naman ni Muschietti, na siya ring director ng pelikulang “It” ng Warner Bros, si Affleck sa muling pagganap bilang Batman: His Batman has a dichotomy that is very strong, which is his masculinity — because of the way he looks, and the imposing figure that he has, and his jawline — but he’s also very vulnerable. He knows how to deliver from the inside out, that vulnerability. He just needs a story that allows him to bring that contrast, that balance.”

“He’s a very substantial part of the emotional impact of the movie. The interaction and relationship between Barry and Affleck’s Wayne will bring an emotional level that we haven’t seen before,” ayon sa direktor.

“It’s Barry’s movie, it’s Barry’s story, but their characters are more related than we think. They both lost their mothers to murder, and that’s one of the emotional vessels of the movie. That’s where the Affleck Batman kicks in.”
