The age of Ben Affleck's Batman has been revealed by producer Michael Uslan.
The Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice producer said that Affleck's character will be in his "mid 40s".
Uslan also addressed the controversy following Affleck's casting opposite Henry Cavill as Superman.
He told app.com: "We've been through this I don't know how many times already. Every time a director makes a creative, out-of-the-box-thinking decision on casting, it tends to get this. I remember even the Iron Man guys got it on Robert Downey Jr initially.
"Of course, we got it intensely when another genius, Chris Nolan, chose Heath Ledger to play the Joker [in 2008's The Dark Knight]. And it was a huge outcry. 'How can a guy who just played a gay cowboy [in 2005's Brokeback Mountain] play the Joker? You're going to destroy the greatest villain ever, this is going to be a laugh.'
"So, this has happened time and again, and it happened with Affleck. To go back to the original thought of Bruce Wayne in his mid-40s, I think he's going to be extraordinary."
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice from director Zack Snyder will be released on March 25, 2016.
