Benjamin Géza Affleck (born August 15, 1972) is an American actor and filmmaker. His accolades include two Academy Awards and three Golden Globe Awards. He began his career as a child when he starred in the PBS educational series The Voyage of the Mimi (1984, 1988). He later appeared in the independent coming-of-age comedy Dazed and Confused (1993) and various Kevin Smith films, including Mallrats (1995), Chasing Amy (1997) and Dogma (1999). Affleck gained wider recognition when he and childhood friend Matt Damon won the Golden Globe and Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay for writing Good Will Hunting (1997), which they also starred in. He then established himself as a leading man in studio films, including the disaster film Armageddon (1998), the war drama Pearl Harbor (2001), and the thrillers The Sum of All Fears and Changing Lanes (both 2002).

His directorial debut, Gone Baby Gone (2007), which he also co-wrote, was well received. He then directed, co-wrote and starred in the crime drama The Town (2010) and directed and starred in the political thriller Argo (2012); both were critical and commercial successes.

for Batman in DC Cinematic Universe: Phase 1
Suggested by roccoscarcella

The DC Cinematic Universe, or the DC-CU, is my attempt at creating a clear, constructed version of the DC Extended Universe, or DCEU, that is also my pitch for the 10-Year DC plan Warner Brothers Discovery had mentioned a few months ago. And since the DCEU is kind of a mess at the moment, with calls and petitions by the fans to recast Aquaman’s Mera after the Johnny Depp/Amber Heard trial as well as recasting the DCEU’s Flash, as Ezra Miller is no longer gonna be the Flash after the Flash movie comes out around 2023. But with the hope of a better DCEU going forward, and under the assumption that the Flash will pull a Flashpoint and reboot the entire universe, I have faith they will return with our most iconic heroes, as they have been sidelined for far too long. So, with the help of a friend of mine on Discord, I figured out how to make a proper DC Cinematic Universe with different phases that will lead up to the big bad, Darkseid of Apokolips, with possible spin-offs that expand the DC universe and the characters with either TV Series or other Solo and Team-Up movies. The structure of this DC Cinematic Universe, is based mostly on the iconic animated DC cartoons, along with some influence from Zack Snyder DC Universe, or the Snyderverse as named by the fans, the DC Animated Movie Universe (DCAMU), and a bit of the New 52 comic run, and it will be less dark than the Snyderverse films.
