Jimmy Fallon was the first person to get Ben Affleck’s public statement about playing The Dark Knight when the actor went on Late Night. He talks about Snyder’s ideas for Batman winning him over and how the studio tried to prepare him for internet backlash by showing him past internet comments on earlier Batman movie castings.

I strongly believe he will be great and all of this pre-movie hate will go the way of Heath Ledger’s casting and be overtaken by a good performance.
