2. Not A Fish Out Of Water
Having been alleged to have originally turned down directing Man of Steel as well as the opportunity to helm a rushed Justice League follow-up, and now having been confirmed to star as Batman in potentially numerous films, it has since become obvious that Affleck may have been waiting to choose the right DC project, selectively choosing the right application of his many talents to the appropriate property. Having a history with comic books along with the likes of buddy Kevin Smith, as well as starring in 2003 as the title character Daredevil, Affleck is no stranger to the world of graphic novel, and not only brings critical and commercial success to the Superman follow up, but also an understanding and appreciation for the medium.
