Director Kevin Smith was expecting to see Ben Affleck in new Marvel film Deadpool & Wolverine.

Smith expressed his surprise that Affleck didn't make a cameo as Daredevil in the hit film, as reported by PEOPLE magazine.

He said, "I was shocked that he didn't pop up in Deadpool & Wolverine," adding, "I thought he was a shoo-in."
