Ben Affleck's Wife Is "Excited About BATMAN"

Ben Affleck's wife, Jennifer Garner ("Butter"), briefly relates her excitement over her husband's upcoming comic book movie role in Zack Sndyer's Superman sequel. Also, Hugh Jackman ("The Wolverine") chimes in with some more praise for Batfleck.

Ben Affleck first met his wife, Jennifer Garner, on the set of the 2003 comic book movie, Daredevil. At the time, Ben was engaged to ex-In Living Color Fly Girl, Jennifer Lopez, and Garner was married to Scott "Living In A Van Down By The River" Foley. Of course, they said no hanky panky took place on set.

ET Canada recently spoke with the Garner, and wanted to see what she thought of her husband landing the role of The Dark Knight in Zack Snyder's Man of Steel sequel. “I’m excited about Batman, of course,” Garner told Roz Weston. “Everything we do, we look at it together, and we say, 'Can we handle this? Can we take this?' And this was one where we were like, 'Let’s go to Michigan!'”

Yesterday, we heard Hugh Jackman do what he does best, praising anyone and anything. Seriously, Hugh doesn't seem to know how to criticize anything, and finds everything to be the best and the greatest. I'd love to hear his thoughts on McDonald's. But, here is some more of Hugh on Ben. "I have a great trainer for Ben," Jackman told ERosey Edeh. "But Ben is poised to crush it. I’m really happy for him. I’m so happy he got the part. The difficult part of the role is the Bruce Wayne part. I think he will crush it, and I’m really excited to see what he does. He’s ready for it. I love Ben—he’s super smart, very talented, and he will be around for a long time. I think people are gonna to love it."

Why hasn't Affleck said anything? Has WB kidnapped him or something?

Everyone was waiting to hear how Garner & Jackman felt about this. Glad it's cleared up. Seriously though are they going to ask anyone that has anything to do with Affleck and/or CBM's these questions?

Jennifer Garner is an amazing actress, Golden Globe winner, has starred in many movies (including an important role in Oscar-winning Juno) and deserves to be recognized as something more than just "Ben Affleck's wife".

Affleck will comment on it when he starts promoting Runner Runner at the end of the month. No way press will avoid asking him about it.

I agree with Nail. Bale was THE BEST Batman/Bruce Wayne in terms of performance and won't be topped.

If Ben's Batman could be badass like Keaton and his Bruce could be good like Val and Bale's, he will do well.

I believe in the Batffleck.

Oh yeah, his first official words are gonna be insane, I'm expecting a huge press conference where Affleck comes out in full costume and swears vengeance upon nerds, the internet and thousands of Batman memes everywhere.
But in all seriousness I reckon Ben's gonna stay silent on the subject until they begin promotion for Runner Runner, which should be soon if the release date is on the 25th.

i believe Ben can play decent Bruce Wayne, and one hell of the Batman. He won't top Bale performance as Wayne - that's for sure - but he could give as the best Batman yet. It's all about Goyer's script. Less Wayne, more Batman. That's the way to do it.

I usually could care less about Hollywood couples, the tabloids, the E channel and all that crap. But I like this couple. Ben and Jennifer are two really talented and really smart individuals, and the seem to know how to make a high profile relationship work. I hope they make it.
