Ben Affleck Clarifies that Batman Movie Title by filmjunkee
You got to love the internet. Ben Affleck and Anna Kendrick were busy today promoting their movie, The Accountant, and they talked about how the internet will make mountains out of mole hills. Affleck talked about how him talking about the title of the solo Batman movie being called “The Batman” was blown out of proportion.
I just mentioned the other day… it’s been around for a long time that the movie… there is no Batman movie happening yet, we’re still trying to figure it out, you know, get the script and budget and all that stuff. And someone said what are you calling it, and I had said, like, back when we were doing, like, promoting another movie, I was like ‘we don’t have a name for it, now we’re just going with The Batman or Batman movie or Batman’, and I said that, and then it was like ‘Affleck announces the title of his new… [Batman movie]’, I was like, you can’t even touch it without it being… and they’re like ‘this title’s so boring’ and ‘this title sucks.
No the title does not suck. It’s great, but it is a working title. Let’s not freak out. The movie is coming.
