Ben Affleck, Kiss of Death?

I saw countless previews articles on Hollywoodland that talked about Affleck playing Superman (George Reeves, actually, but they apparently loved that angle). But it's opening tomorrow, and he's conspicuously absent from all the media… no mention or screen time in the TV spots, no mention in the radio spots (even though they do play a brief clip of him in those), and they've even redesigned the posters from the first one I saw to move his pic into the background.

I understand that, with the whole Hollywood noir approach to the story, his role might be a relatively minor one. Let's face it… he's gonna die off early in the film, so he'll probably be seen more in flashbacks than anything else. But it's still gotta suck to have a major role in this film, BEEN a marquee name for years and find yourself not even getting mentioned in any of the ads.

I've never been a huge Affleck fan (and I'm beginning to wonder who, outside of Kevin Smith, ever really was), but this seems kinda harsh.
