Affleck even had an influence on Damon’s acting back in the day.
Years later, their childhood bond is still evident in their joint interviews, public appearances, and collaborations.
Surprisingly, it wasn’t.
Affleck played a role in developing Damon’s acting chops long before the two ever hit the big screen!
He’s been directing me for like forty-something years."
Affleck also quipped, “It’s not the first time I’vecarriedhim!”
However, achieving stardom in Hollywood is no easy feat.
It took Affleck and Damon eight more years and two more movies together before they won their first Oscars.
The two agreed that “Good Will Hunting” was made to be an acting reel.
It speaks to an amazing and supportive friendship between the two stars.
That’s right: the besties have a co-owned platform for more collaborations and creative independence.
But it was not their first try.
In 2000, the duo co-founded “LivePlanet” with Sean Bailey and Chris Moore.
However, the multimedia company closed in 2008 after its deal with Disney ended.
With good reviews on their latest movie together, we are expecting more of their collaborations or even reboots.
