The original Batman actor Adam West shared his thoughts about “Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice” during an appearance at San Diego Comic-Con 2014.
In an interview with Flicks And The City, West talked about his 1966 TV show, possibly taking on a role in “Gotham” and his upcoming game title “LEGO Batman 3.”
The former Batman actor also explained why he would never want to tell Ben Affleck how to portray a character, unless he was directing the film. However, West admitted he’d like to see a little more humor in the dark, DC world, but that’s not all the actor revealed. Check out the video of West’s interview below.

Another filmmaker dished on Affleck during Comic-Con. Comic Book reports Kevin Smith revealed Affleck wasn’t interested in taking on another superhero role after “Daredevil.” His decision wasn’t based on how bad the film was, but rather how uncomfortable his costume was to film in.
“Everyone I know who’s ever put on like a mask in a movie and s***, they’re like, ‘Don’t ever do it. It’s hell on earth and s***,’” Smith said, according to Comic Book. “Ironically enough, there’s a friend of mine, who played a superhero in a movie, and he once said to me, ‘Remind me, if anyone ever offers me a costume movie again, I never want to do this s***, because this suit is uncomfortable.’ The movie was Daredevil, and the guy rethought the whole decision about being in a f***ing costume and whatnot.”
“Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice” will be released to theaters on May 6, 2016.
