Henry Cavill Admits He Geeked Out Over Ben Affleck in His Batman Suit While Shooting 'BvS'

The new DC flick may be called Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, but there is little doubt that most fans are rooting for the Caped Crusader. Ben Affleck's portrayal of the DC superhero may have been so convincing that even his costar, Henry Cavill, actually geeked out at the sight of him in his Batman suit while they were filming BvS!

Cavill confirmed with Variety that he was in awe of Affleck's Dark Knight when the Gone Girl star stepped out on the set with him.

"I had trouble not geeking out, and I was geeking out so much -- trying to be cool at the same time, obviously -- that I forgot that I was dressed in the Superman costume," Cavill admitted, adding that seeing Affleck on set in his suit made him forget momentarily that he was also playing a DC superhero.

"I was like, 'Oh, that's Batman over there, that's so awesome!' Then, of course, I looked at the monitor, and I remembered that I was the guy next to him," he revealed.

Cavill may have been completely impressed with Affleck, but Batman apparently doesn't think so highly of Superman in the latest BvS trailer. The new video reveals that Batffleck actually threw a zinger at the Man of Steel after the memorable moment when the Caped Crusader blocked Kal-El's punch with one arm.

"You're not brave," he said in his Batman voice. "Men are brave."

That doesn't mean there isn't any love for the Kryptonian in the new teaser. Diane Lane's Martha Kent tries her best to tell her adopted son that he can be a hero to humanity, but only if he chooses to. "You don't owe this world a thing," she tells him. "You never did."

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice will hit theaters on March 25.
