Career

Early life and career

Affleck grew up in Cambridge, Massachusetts, where he formed a lasting friendship with his neighbour Matt Damon. Affleck’s first role was in a Burger King commercial, and in 1984 he appeared in the Public Broadcasting Service’s miniseries The Voyage of the Mimi. He continued acting as a teenager in the TV movie Hands of a Stranger (1987) and in The Second Voyage of the Mimi (1988).

Affleck briefly attended both the University of Vermont and Occidental College but left before graduating, to focus on acting. During his early career his height and stature often got him cast as a bully, and he played minor characters in independent films such as the cult hits Dazed and Confused (1993) and Kevin Smith’s Mallrats (1995). Smith was impressed by Affleck and cast him as the lead in his next film, Chasing Amy (1997).

Good Will Hunting transformed Affleck’s career. He subsequently starred in the action film Armageddon (1998); Shakespeare in Love (1998), a period piece written by playwright Tom Stoppard; and another Smith film, Dogma (1999), in which Affleck and Damon portrayed fallen angels.

In Pearl Harbor (2001) he played an enthusiastic American pilot fighting alongside the British in World War II. Although the film was largely panned by critics, it was a box-office success.

Branching out, Affleck began working as a producer, most notably on Project Greenlight (2001, 2003, 2005), a reality show that documented aspiring filmmakers. In 2002 he appeared as CIA agent Jack Ryan in the successful film The Sum of All Fears, which was based on Tom Clancy’s espionage best seller. Affleck then starred opposite Jennifer Garner in Daredevil (2003), the film adaptation of the popular comic book series.

Affleck’s credits from the 2010s included The Company Men (2010), a drama about corporate downsizing; Terrence Malick’s impressionistic romance To the Wonder (2012); and the online-gambling thriller Runner Runner (2013). In 2014 Affleck starred as a man implicated in his wife’s disappearance in David Fincher’s suspenseful Gone Girl, based on the novel by Gillian Flynn.

He later donned superhero gear again, this time as Batman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) and Justice League (2017); a different cut of the latter film was released in 2021 as Zack Snyder’s Justice League.

In 2016 Affleck also portrayed a math savant who works as a bookkeeper for gangsters and drug cartels in the thriller The Accountant. Movies from 2019 included Triple Frontier, a thriller in which a team of former Special Forces operatives face a series of moral dilemmas after staging an elaborate heist.

In 2020 Affleck starred in The Last Thing He Wanted, a crime drama based on a novel by Joan Didion, and The Way Back, about an alcoholic who becomes a high-school basketball coach. He later reteamed with Damon, on Ridley Scott’s The Last Duel (2021).

The medieval drama was based on a true story of a woman who accused a squire (Adam Driver) of rape, resulting in a trial by combat between the alleged attacker and her husband (Damon); Affleck played a debauched count.

In addition to appearing in the film, Affleck and Damon wrote the script with Nicole Holofcener. Also in 2021 Affleck starred in The Tender Bar, portraying a bartender who becomes a father figure to his nephew; the drama, which was based on a memoir by J.R. Moehringer, was directed by George Clooney.

Affleck later appeared in Deep Water (2022), a thriller inspired by Patricia Highsmith’s novel about a man accused of murdering his wife’s lovers.
