Will Batman v Superman live up to its high expectations?


(MENAFN- Khaleej Times) In case it wasn't clear that expectations for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice are running extremely high at Warner Bros., star Ben Affleck put it in plain language. "I think there is a ton of pressure on it," Affleck said of the film, in which he plays Batman. "I mean I would be bull****ing you to say there isn't."

Affleck was speaking about the film in connection with Variety's cover story on Warners CEO Kevin Tsujihara. The actor-director spoke about how much he has enjoyed working with Tsujihara and how deeply involved the studio boss has been in the making of the superhero franchise picture. Affleck predicted that Batman v Superman will help launch a turnaround at the studio. "You'll see next year they are going to have a great year," he said. "They are now developing ... probably the single greatest under-exploited IP asset in the entertainment business, the DC comic world. You are going to see that blossom. And, when it does, it's going to be massive."
