Ben Affleck had a wonderful time playing Bruce Wayne and Batman in 2016's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, but not so much in its sequel, Justice League.

Breaking down his career roles for GQ in a video posted Friday, Affleck explained why he essentially got burned out with the Caped Crusader.

"Justice League was unfortunately touched by some personal tragedy - a death in (director) Zack's [Synder] family. And like I say, sometimes things sort of work and gel and sometimes you seem to be having one problem after another," Affleck said.

Circling back, Affleck said he "really loved" Batman v Superman, but after Justice League, he was done.

"I had my fill of that," he tells GQ. "They said, 'Would you like to direct and star in a solo Batman movie?' And I found that, at some point, I had lost my enthusiasm or passion for it. And I thought this should really be made by someone who for whom it's their wildest dream come true. It was clear to me it was time to move on."
