Some Twitter users demand Ben Affleck step down as Batman one month before 'Justice League' debut

CNBC reports:

Some Twitter users are calling on Ben Affleck to step down from his role as Batman over his ties to disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein and allegations of his own past impropriety.

The backlash comes just one month before Affleck makes his return as the caped crusader in the Warner Bros. comic book blockbuster "Justice League." The movie is a major tent pole in Warner's DC superhero franchise, and is seen as its answer to Disney and Marvel Studios' multi-billion dollar "Avengers" series.

Affleck stars in the movie as a mature Batman who seeks to unite the world's heroes after the death of Superman in last year's "Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice."

Virtuous Ben... in the news.
