Fat Man on Superman

Ben Affleck is now in what is possibly the best shape of his life. If you’ve seen his most recent film, the David Fincher-directed thriller “Gone Girl, ” you probably noticed that his weight oscillated throughout the movie, because some scenes were shot before he started training for “Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice, ” which comes in May 2016.
However, before he bulked up, he repeatedly refused to get in shape, to the point where he was dubbed “Fatman” and people would make fun of him behind his back, an inside source tells the latest print issue of The National Enquirer (story via CB).
He refused to work with the trainer provided to him
When he agreed to star as Batman, Affleck was informed that he would have to get in shape for the role. These days, every actor who takes on a role in an action movie, particularly in a comic book-based one, knows that this comes with the territory.
But the rewards are proportional to the effort that goes into the preparation for the part: just look at Chris Pratt and how Marvel made him the hottest star on the scene right now, with this summer’s blockbuster “Guardians of the Galaxy.”
However, while Affleck knew that he must start training, he refused to do so with the trainer provided to him and turned to a guy recommended to him by his best friend Matt Damon, the tab would have us believe.
That was a very bad idea, an insider claims.
“Turns out that was a truly bad decision for Ben, because when it finally came time to start filming after many delays, the star showed up looking so flabby for a shirtless boxing scene that producers immediately hired a ripped body double – and ended up using him so frequently as the Batman stand-in that snarky crew members sneakily started calling Ben ‘Fatman’ behind his back!” dishes the spy.
We’re to believe Affleck eventually learned his lesson, which would explain his impressive figure right now.
