Affleck spoke about his experience at the sets, and said that it was a really nice way to revisit it. Afterwards he added that “the prior experience had been difficult.” He spoke about the movie when he arrived with George Clooney for a screening of Clooney’s new drama, The Tender Bar.

Affleck continued, saying he had a great time. He also joked at the start that he was probably under some gag order which he’s not aware of and probably violated, for which he will get sued.

“I love Ezra,” he said, and also mentioned meeting Jason Momoa who was working on the Sequel of Aquaman in London. Affleck will share screen space with Michael Keaton, who will reprise his role as Batman too.
