Ben Affleck’s Batman is mourning the loss of Robin
Ben Affleck has revealed how the death of his partner Robin in the DC Cinematic Universe has affected his character in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
Affleck told Entertainment Weekly:
“He’s bitterly disappointed in the past that he’s lost this guy who fought by his side. That character’s death must have been devastating to him, and he’s suffered. We get the sense that he’s suffered a lot of devastating losses before this movie even starts.”
There have been clues in the trailer to hint at Batman’s grief over losing Robin but now Affleck has given us a clearer insight into what the caped crusader is feeling.
