Ben Affleck relates to Batman`s `bottled up rage`

London: Ben Affleck confessed that he can relate to his upcoming film, 'Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice's' lead character's anger.

The 42-year-actor, who plays Bruce Wayne/Batman in Zach Snyder's superhero flick said that he was a kind of person who usually just "put up" with things, and for whom anger was deeply "buried and contained", but when it came, it came out in "bursts," a magazine reported.

The 'Argo' star, who's father to 3 kids with actress wife Jennifer Garner , added that it was probably a character flaw.

Affleck, who also admitted to be thankful of his superhero role, said that he hopes being Batman would help him getting more opportunities for his film directing career, as the working in the much-awaited film, which is slated for a March 2016 release, was an education.
