Geoff Johns Praises The Dialogue Ben Affleck Has Written For THE BATMAN And Discusses DC REBIRTH
During an appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers yesterday, DC Entertainment CCO Geoff Johns spilled the beans on DC Rebirth and Ben Affleck's "amazing" work on the solo Batman movie...
Marvel's attempt to steal the spotlight from DC Rebirth has backfired horribly (hence why #SayNoToHYDRACap is trending worldwide), and in the video above, Geoff Johns talks to Seth Meyers about how the comic is shaking up rather than rebooting the DC Universe. However, it's the writer's comments about working with Ben Affleck on The Batman which really stand out here.
"He’s amazing, but he’s amazing at dialogue," Johns revealed when asked about working with the filmmaker. "When he reads the dialogue I just sit there going ‘Wow, I’m talking to Batman!'"
Affleck obviously once won an Oscar for his writing, so the fact that he's so heavily involved with that side of things in The Batman is very good news indeed. Johns meanwhile is also the perfect choice for the Caped Crusader's solo outing when you look at what he's done with Rebirth, so they're definitely something of a dream team when put together. Anyway, watch the whole interview above!
