'Batkid Begins' documentary to premiere in San Francisco

SAN FRANCISCO -- The documentary about the Bay Area's favorite caped crusader premieres tonight in San Francisco.



A convoy of Lamborghinis will carry many of the people who helped grant the wish of 5-year-old cancer patient Miles Scott, who wanted to be Batkid.

Red carpet arrivals for "Batkid Begins: The Wish Heard Around the World" start at Sundance Kabuki Cinema on Post Street at 6 p.m.

The documentary will open in select theaters Friday.

Actor Ben Affleck tweeted his support on Wednesday morning. He wrote, "From one Batman to another: thank you #SFBatkid."
