Often when an actor plays a superhero, they wish to keep some memory of their character with them. Whether it’s their weapon or suit, actors want to treasure it for life. Even Ben Affleck wanted to keep his grey Batsuit from the DC film. But Warner Bros asked him to pay a HUGE amount for the same. You will be shocked to know the numbers. That’s our DC Trivia #12 for today.
A few years ago, when Ben Affleck appeared on Live With Kelly And Michael, he shared this story. The Batman V Superman actor shared, “I asked them, ‘What about taking the suit home at the end of the thing?’ And they said, ‘For $100k.’ And I said, ‘Well maybe I’ll just take a picture …’ There’s a lot that goes into it, there’s a lot of designers. These movies have become the big deal, so they spend a lot of money on every little detail. And they’re scrutinized and criticized, and the guy who did the suits did a very good job.”
