Matt Damon and Ben Affleck are not just childhood friends but two of Hollywood’s long-time collaborators who’ve made award-winning films together over the years. The pals, who grew up together in Boston and became friends when Matt Damon was 10 and Ben Affleck was 8, bonded over their mutual passions for baseball and acting.
The Boston natives and best friends have made ten films together, and one of those movies won them their first Oscar. Now, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are all set to star and produce the upcoming Netflix thriller RIP.
The long-time friends and collaborators will reportedly watch the new film through their company, Artists Equity, which was launched in 2022 to provide more equitable profits for their cast and crew. The production company also released its debut movie, Air, in 2023, starring Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.
