Warner Bros. is Reportedly Seeking Ben Affleck to Direct "Justice League"


Interesting comic news. WB is trying to make some sense in their DC Comics interest. Looks like they are courting Ben to handle the Super Friends.
Today, that prospect took an interesting turn as Variety reports actor/director Ben Affleck tops the studio's list of potential helmers for the "Justice League" project. The already bankable star has been on a widely praised run behind the camera in recent years making hits out of "Gone Baby Gone" and "The Town," and he's soon to open "Argo" -- a spy story inspired by true events that features unlikely side player Jack Kirby.
Can he do it? I guess we will find out as the months roll out, but it would be interesting to see his take of the DC heroes.

Is this because he played Daredevil and the thought is he knows something about superheroes?
