Ben Affleck Comments on Batman's Dynamic with The Flash and Aquaman in 'Justice League'

HaydnSpurrell HaydnSpurrell Ben Affleck made his definitive mark as Bruce Wayne and Batman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, giving fans a version of the hero that would spark debate for quite some time.

Amidst all the chaos and carnage, we got to see him interact with his fellow heroes Superman and Wonder Woman for the first time in a live-action feature, and next we'll see him mingle with the other heroes of the DC world, most notably The Flash and Aquaman.

Collider reports that, from a set visit last week, there is an interesting mix of characters that make up the crime-fighting team. Ezra Miller's Flash is boisterous and full of excitement at joining the League.

“There’s a quality to really what Ezra [Miller] does that is young and fun and full of life, and excited about what they’re doing that’s so in contrast to who Batman is, there’s a little bit of that natural yin and yang to playing scenes with him. There’s not the ward aspect to it, but there’s a little bit of the mentor.

"Which you’d probably ask Ezra and he’d be like, ‘F—k that! He’s not my mentor!’ But I think there is a little bit. And it’s fun to play, definitely. And what does Batman do around a guy who’s really excited and positive all the time? [laughs] You know what I mean? That’s not his natural state of being, so that’s really fun. And it’s been really, really cool.

"Everybody has brought a certain kind of energy to their character that’s really distinct in this thing. All of a sudden, it’s a totally different kind of movie, in ways from the last one, because all of a sudden it’s really an ensemble movie. This is a movie about a bunch of different people and qualities and characters all sort of how they work together, what that melting pot is like.”

Aquaman's a whole other story. “You know, Aquaman’s a very strong character, played by a very strong actor with a very strong personality, so I don’t think he’s the sort of guy who at any point in his life takes orders from people.

"Jason Momoa, he’s got a very strong, stubborn, independent, powerful energy. So it’s not like any of these characters show up and immediately go like, ‘Yes sir, what should I do, Mr. Wayne?’ It’s about like trying to get a lot of disparate people who are used to being very powerful and independent to try to work together.

"And it’s about how hard it is for them to all get along. And there are some characters who really hit it off with each other, some that don’t hit it off with each other, almost come to blows, and it’s about trying to contain that. So it’s not an easy ride trying to get this group to come together.”

We'll get to see how that works out when the film arrives November 2017.
