Christian Bale Gave Ben Affleck Advice On Batman

The new Batman emerged this past weekend at San Diego Comic-Con, along with the rest of the "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" cast. The actors at the panel included Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Gal Gadot, Jeremy Irons, Holly Hunter and Jesse Eisenberg. The stars of the movie reunited on the biggest stage of Comic-Con, the famous Hall H. At the panel, Affleck talked about his version of Batman and the advice Christian Bale, the most recent Batman, gave him.

Affleck revealed he ran into Bale as they were shopping for Halloween costumes for their sons—Batman costumes, of course! "There he and I are standing in the Batman costume row and I said, 'Do you have any tips,'" recalled Affleck. "And he said, 'Make sure you can piss in that suit.'"

For the most part, Affleck said, he tries to keep the other Batmen out of his mind. "If I thought too hard about who came before... I couldn't do it," he said. Affleck's version, like Frank Miller's, is burned out and at the end of his rope, reported Time.

The first full-length trailer for the film was also revealed at Comic-Con by director Zack Snyder. "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" hits theatres March 25, 2016. Watch the first trailer below!
