Later on, Affleck held a gray and black bag in his right hand as he stood next to a small four-door sedan. 

While Affleck still seems to enjoy making movies, he recently dished about at least one film that he couldn’t stand making. 

He reflected on playing Batman over the span of several superhero films, naming Justice League as by far ‘the worst experience’ of them all.

The 49-year-old actor called the filming process ‘awful’ for a ‘confluence’ of reasons, and said it made him want to retire from the superhero all together before The Flash came along.

‘That became the moment where I said, “I’m not doing this anymore,” he confessed to the Los Angeles Times while speaking about the movie — which he called the ‘nadir’ of his life.

The Tender Bar actor spoke candidly about his involvement with the 2017 DC Comics film, and how it was the catalyst for now only taking on projects that make him ‘happy.’  

‘It was really Justice League that was the nadir for me. That was a bad experience because of a confluence of things: my own life, my divorce, being away too much, the competing agendas and then [director] Zack [Snyder]’s personal tragedy  [Snyder’s daughter Autumn died by suicide in 2017] and the reshooting. 

‘It just was the worst experience. It was awful,’ he continued to say. ‘It was everything that I didn’t like about this. That became the moment where I said, “I’m not doing this anymore.”
