Welcome to the podcast! Today, we're diving into a revealing moment from Ben Affleck, where he shares his thoughts on wearing the infamous Batsuit. In a recent GQ interview, Affleck didn’t hold back, stating, “I hated the bat suits. The bat suits are horrendous to wear.” He explained the discomfort, noting, “They’re hot for one thing, they don’t breathe... you just start sweating.”
Affleck highlighted that even the fittest stunt professionals struggled in the suit, enduring it for only 45 to 50 minutes before feeling heat stroke setting in. He humorously described the challenge of trying to appear heroic while drenched in sweat, saying, “You’re instantly exhausted and really sweaty... like ‘No, we can go again, I’m fine.’”
Despite the discomfort, Affleck expressed a sense of gratitude for his time in the DC Universe, particularly with Zack Snyder’s vision. He mentioned that the Snyder cut of The Justice League is now his highest-rated movie on IMDb, reflecting on the importance of a director’s clear vision. Affleck concluded, “I was very happy for Zack… that he got a chance to do that.”
