Some photos taken during "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" premiere on March 20 at Radio City Music Hall in New York City seem to suggest that there is a bromance going on between Ben Affleck, 43, and Henry Cavill, 32. The two wore similar outfits during the premiere.
Both Affleck and Cavill hit the black carpet solo during the New York premiere. The latter was not with his girlfriend Tara King, 19.
It was on March 22, Tuesday, during the European premiere for the superhero film in London that Cavill was seen on the red carpet with his girlfriend along with his mother Marianne Dalgliesh. Matching Cavill's black outfit, King wore a black dress while his mother was on a neon pink dress, Daily Mail reported.
On the other hand, there are no details about Affleck dating someone after he and Jennifer Garner separated. On March 25, Friday, the former appeared on "CBS This Morning," where he talked about his relationship with the latter.
"Each step that we take is one where we prioritize our children, and everything else comes second," Affleck said. "She's just so good at doing that and sets such a good example and that's a lead that I follow."
During the "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" premiere in New York, director Zack Snyder was accompanied by his wife Deborah Snyder. Affleck and Cavill's "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" co-stars Amy Adams, Gal Gadot, Scoot McNairy, Holly Hunter, Diane Lane, Lauren Cohan, Jesse Eisenberg and Tao Okamoto also hit the black carpet.
Inside Radio City Music Hall, thousands cheered on the cast. Jeffrey Dean Morgan, who plays Thomas Wayne but not credited, attended the premiere, which was also attended by several celebrities who not cast members, such as Will Smith and John Corbett.
In an interview with Hollywood Reporter during the premiere, Cavill was asked how he was dealing with the anticipation for the superhero film. He replied, "Do I seem like I'm dealing with it well? Then I'm dealing with it well."
