Imagine you’ve been cast as a superhero in an upcoming film, and you get the wild and crazy idea that you want to keep your badass suit that you’ve spent months and months in. Your DNA has likely become one with the fibers of this meticulously-crafted costume, and you’d possibly feel that part of you had left your life once you finished production on your film. Wouldn’t you inquire about keeping your supersuit?
Ben Affleck asked the studio if he could keep his Batsuit, and their response was that he could have it for $100,000 dollars. Even a wealthy actor like Mr. Affleck likely reeled in shock at the amount they requested, but probably understood after pondering for a bit on the investment required to perfect that suit for repeated usage in a big-budget action film. So, naturally, he will likely settle on simply taking a picture of the suit and treasuring a fond, priceless memory.
