Josh Brolin reveals why he wasn’t Batman — but Ben Affleck was
now-newly-engaged Ben Affleck — in his versions of the superhero franchise.“It would have been the older, the more raspy, for lack of a better word,” Brolin said on MTV’s “Happy Sad Confused” podcast recently, describing how his take would have differed from Affleck’s portrayal in 2016’s “Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice” and 2017’s “Justice League.” He also said that the idea was “interesting” to him and claimed that the choice to instead cast Affleck, 49, wasn’t his decision, but Snyder’s.“Honestly, that would have been a fun deal,” Brolin, 54, added.
