Ben Affleck is currently doing a lot of press for his new Netflix movie, Animals. He did a big interview with Variety where he was asked if he's glad he decided to play Batman, and the answer was yes.

Affleck explained that he really liked doing Batman v Superman, although Justice League "wasn't that much fun, frankly" due to all the issues surrounding that movie. Affleck has been honest about struggling in his personal life during that time as well.

Check out Affleck's full response below.

I passed a Batsuit and a Batcycle on my way in here. You’re going to have to talk about playing Batman until you die. Are you glad you did it?

Yeah. I really liked doing “Batman v Superman.” That was really fun. “Justice League” had a lot of issues, and that wasn’t that much fun, frankly. I was glad that Zack [Snyder] was able to get his vision for how he wanted that movie to be out there. That was rewarding. But there was a sense of “Oh, the movie was a little bit too dark or scary, and it lost some of the younger audience.”

It seems to be an ongoing question, and I don’t know the answer: Do you go all the way to a hard-R rating like “Joker”? Or do it like Marvel, which does something broad, unless you’re talking about “Deadpool & Wolverine”?

The interesting thing with the DC characters [comes down] to the legacy of Frank Miller. There seems to be more tension between “Are we doing the grown-up version or the one that’s open to kids?” There’s a risk of being a feathered fish. It’s something they’re still navigating at DC. But I have to say, Kevin Feige is a kind of genius. I can’t think of any producer in the world who can say, “This is what the audience wants,” and be right, except for him.
