Ben Affleck has revealed that he turned down the chance to reprise the role of Daredevil.

The actor took on the role for the first time back in 2003 and it looks like the character could possibly be back on the way to the big screen in a reboot.

But Affleck felt that it wouldn't be a reboot if ht was once again involved.

Speaking to MTV News the actor said: "I got contacted about it, and I was like, 'That wouldn't be a reboot [if I was involved]', but I really hope they do a good job, because that's a great property and deserves something really, really good."

And while Daredevil may not be on the cards for the actor turned director he has not turned out a return to that genre if the right script and character came along.

"I would love to do [a comic book movie] if it was the right one, if I thought I could do it well.

"I think you have to, with any movie, have an idea for it that's original and unique and committed to it, and that's a hard thing to find."

But we will be seeing Affleck back on the big screen this autumn with Argo, a movie that he stars in as well as directs.

The film will be playing at the BFI London Film Festival next week and is already been talked about for possible Oscar nominations.
