The actor made the slip while appearing on the latest episode of the 'SmartLess' podcast.If you don’t want any spoilers about The Flash, stop reading now.Alas, the usually media-savvy Ben Affleck has dropped a clanger by revealing details about a certain key DC character cameo in Andy Muschietti’s upcoming The Flash.
Affleck, who is currently on a press tour to promote his film Air: Courting a Legend, appeared on the latest episode of Sean Hayes, Will Arnett and Jason Bateman’s SmartLess podcast. Affleck, while sharing his thoughts on playing Batman again, ventured into spoiler territory, telling the hosts about the nature of Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman cameo, which The Hollywood Reporter previously reported would take place along with appearances from other members of Zack Snyder’s Justice League ensemble.Despite seemingly recognizing mid-sentence that he may have revealed something he shouldn’t have, Affleck proceeded to give details of the scene that he and Gadot filmed.
“I don’t want to give spoilers but it was a scene where I get caught — I get saved — by Wonder Woman during a conflagration with some bad guys,” Affleck shared, acknowledging that the “spoiler DC assassins” might be listening. “She saves me … with the lasso of truth. And so what happens is that Batman divulges some of his real feelings about his life and his work.”
The actor added that his performance in The Flash was the first time he really understood the character and it ultimately made him want to come back to play the hero again. “It’s my best shit I’ve done as [Batman],” he said, excitedly. “I finally figured out how to play the guy. I was like, ‘Hold on, I quit. I know I quit. But I got it now!’”
