In a recent episode of the popular talk show, The Graham Norton Show, Hollywood star Ben Affleck sat down for an extended interview and revealed some interesting behind-the-scenes details about his latest film and his personal experiences. Affleck, known for his roles in movies like Good Will Hunting and Argo, discussed his upcoming film, the new Justice League, where he reprises his role as Batman.
Affleck’s interview with Norton took a humorous turn as he shared a funny anecdote about his recent visit to London with his kids. The actor, who wanted to expose his children to the British culture, took them to see the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace. However, to his surprise, there were no special backstage privileges for celebrities. Affleck found himself in a crowd of 50,000 tourists, unable to even see the guard change. He humorously described the experience as an “exercise in the examination of the what extent you can go with a selfie.”
The conversation then shifted to Affleck’s role in his upcoming film, where he plays a maths genius. The actor admitted that his real-life mathematical skills are limited to helping his daughter with fifth-grade math homework. To ensure accuracy in his portrayal, the film’s director insisted that all the numbers in the movie be exactly right, leaving no room for improvisation. Affleck found it amusing that his character had to write on glass and windows, stating, “That’s how you have to do it. But who does that? Like you don’t they don’t make you do it.”
As the interview progressed, Affleck shared some childhood memories of presenting a TV show called “Voyage of the Mimi,” where he explored archaeology and science. The actor humorously recalled his lack of understanding of the scientific concepts being explained to him on the show, joking that he had a “look of horror” whenever the experts delved into complex topics.
Affleck also lightly touched on his experience with the British royal family during his trip to Windsor Castle. Unknowingly, his son was playing alongside Prince George and Princess Charlotte, leading Affleck to humorously claim that his son caught a cold from the “king of England.”
Throughout the interview, Affleck’s charismatic and self-deprecating humor kept the audience entertained. His witty remarks and amusing stories added a lively touch to the conversation, making it a delightful watch for fans of the talk show and Affleck’s work.
In conclusion, Ben Affleck‘s extended interview on The Graham Norton Show provided a glimpse into the lighter side of the actor’s life, showcasing his humor and down-to-earth personality. With his upcoming film, Justice League, set to hit the screens soon, fans can expect to see Affleck portray the iconic Batman once again.
