Ben Affleck and Jimmy Kimmel represented Batman and Robin when they took the stage at Global Citizen’s Vax Live: The Concert To Reunite The World at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. Kimmel wore a replica of Burt Ward’s Robin costume from the original 1960s Batman TV series.

While Affleck did not dress up as Batman, he did play Batman in the 2016 superhero adventure Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and 2017’s Justice League, with a cameo in 2017’s Suicide Squad.

The pair’s appearance is part of Global Citizen Vax Live: The Concert To Reunite The World, a benefit concert aimed at raising awareness of the COVID-19 vaccine and raising money to help get more than 27 million international healthcare workers vaccinated. The full show will be broadcast on May 8, 2021 at 11 p.m. ET/PT on ABC, ABC News Live, CBS, YouTube, iHeartMedia broadcast radio stations and the iHeartRadio App.
