Ben Affleck Teases 'Justice League' as Biggest Movie He's Been Involved With

With the upcoming Justice League bringing some of the biggest heroes in the DC Universe together there's no doubt that the film will match that large scale. Now, however, Ben Affleck says not only is Justice League big, but it's the biggest movie he's ever been involved with.
In the most recent issue of Empire Magazine (via Comic Book Movie), Affleck said that the Justice League movie is larger in scale than anything he's ever done before and that includes his first turn as Batman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
"The movie's bigger in scale than any movie I've been involved with my career," Affleck said. "It feels massive in terms of the visual elements."
For Justice League to be bigger than anything he's done before is a tall order. In addition to Batman v Superman, Affleck also starred Michael Bay's epic war drama Pearl Harbor which itself had large visual elements and effects. But with Justice League having started out as Zack Snyder's vision, the film would have been a small affair. Big and visually stunning is a Snyder hallmark, something that Affleck says fans will admire when they see Justice League come to life.
"That's something Zack is really good at," Affleck said. "That will be admired."
Affleck's praise of Snyder also reinforces that, despite Joss Whedon taking the helm of the film after Snyder stepped down following a family tragedy, Justice League is still Snyder's movie. It's a sentiment Affleck's costar Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman) shares.
"This is Zack Snyder's movie," Gadot said. "Joss only did a few weeks of reshoots. He was Zack's guy and knew exactly what he wanted to get."
Justice League currently has a 4.18 out of 5 ComicBook.com User Anticipation Rating, making it the third most anticipated upcoming comic book movie among ComicBook.com users.
