Arriving at LAX ahead of some Father's Day celebrations, Ben Affleck took time to confirm that he would be attending 2016 Comic Con International in San Diego later next month.

In a video by X17Online, Ben can be seen at the airport signing several autographs for fans while looking exhausted, and perhaps jet-lagged, from his long flight from London's Leavesden Studios as DC Entertainment's Justice League is currently in production there.

A few second in, a fan can be heard asking Ben if shooting has wrapped on the superhero film to which the actor answers, "Oh no." However, Ben gives a much better response when someone else asks Ben if he's attending Comic Con. The actor can be seen nodding while saying, "Yeah, we'll be there."

While fans are expecting to see a few teases of DC Entertainment's upcoming films such as Wonder Woman and Suicide Squad, there's little indication that studio will be rolling out footage from the Justice League set, especially considering the film is not scheduled to hit theaters Fall 2017. However, with Ben Affleck confirming his appearance at Comic Con, fans are wondering whether DC is planning a panel with Justice League cast members such as Ezra Miller (The Flash), Henry Cavill (Clark Kent/Superman), Gal Gadot (Diana Prince/Wonder Woman), and more.

With tickets for the convention selling out in less than an hour this year, San Diego Comic Con reigns as one of the largest pop culture gatherings in the world with over 130,000 fans flocking to the event. As big-time studios and comic publishers attend the event, it's the perfect place for projects to gain exposure as fans queue for hours to attend panels on their favorite franchises. And, undoubtedly, DC Entertainment's stage won't be one to miss.

San Diego Comic Con will be held July 21-24th with its Preview Night hosted on July 20th.
