Welcome to my Ben Affleck and Matt Damon Fan Site. I'm just getting started. So far, all I've got are a few pictures and links to scripts of movies that either Ben or Matt (or Both!) have been in.

The Batman has lost an acclaimed director, gained another acclaimed director, reportedly almost lost its star, and now, it’s dropping its original script in favor of a completely new story.

Now, this could all be cause for alarm. But director Matt Reeves dropping Ben Affleck’s script to rewrite the story from scratch is something that has been brewing for a long time, and will likely be a good reset for the embattled production.

We reported in March that the studio was eyeing a “fresh start” and that Reeves was set to rewrite the movie from scratch. Now Reeves has confirmed that news on MTV’s Happy Sad Confused podcast, stating that he has scrapped Affleck, Chris Terrio, and DC Film’s Geoff Johns‘ original script:

“No, it’s a new story. It’s just starting again. I’m excited about it. I think it’s going to be really cool.”

Ben

Affleck’s original script featured Deathstroke as the villain, with Joe Manganiello set to play the sword-wielding assassin, but it’s yet to be seen whether Reeves will keep the character with his new script. It’s unlikely, as Reeves has been excitedly pushing his “noir-driven,”Hitchcockian vision of Batman (which I am all for, as we don’t get enough Detective Batman), and the conspicuous Deathstroke isn’t a character that fits in that vision.

It’s too bad for Manganiello, but this means that Deathstroke could appear in the Nightwing movie, as he is one of Dick Grayson’s few regular rogues.

While it’s easy to look at The Batman‘s troubled production as a sign of trouble, it could in fact mean that Warner Bros. is taking into account the runaway success of Wonder Woman and changing course for their future DCEU films. Reeves is an accomplished director who has done wonders for the Planet of the Apes reboot series, turning the franchise into some of the most impactful and intellectual blockbusters series in recent memory. I don’t doubt that he will do the same with The Batman – the Caped Crusader has such a rich history and with many different character interpretations for Reeves to play with.

While Affleck, Johns, and Terrio sound like a dream-team of writers, perhaps a troubled script could have influenced Affleck’s decision to leave the director’s chair. I don’t mind The Batman starting a new with a singular vision from a director I trust.

Batman-News originally spotted the comments, which began at the 30-minute mark during the podcast.

The Batman‘s release date is not confirmed, but it will likely hit theaters in 2019.

'Matt: This is an excellent script. This is the best script I've ever read. If Ben put this here as a joke, if Ben wrote this, then I have severely underestimated his talents.
Ben: Hey, hey check this out! (Ben chugs an entire bottle of Veryfine apple juice.) One motherf*cking sip!
Matt: Okay, Ben did not write this.'
It's kind of bonkers that Good Will Hunting, an incredibly touching and brilliantly done film, was written by the original f*ckboys: Matt Damon and Ben Affleck.

I sometimes think about the Me and Mindy finally meet and i know we will be fast friends. She is witty and funny and an amazing writer/actress/producer. She has yet again succeeded in making my laugh and sigh saying 'oh Mindy' This is so cleverly written and i loved it so!

Read this out loud with my girlfriend and it was a lot of fun. She loves Mindy Kaling and was excited when I picked this up for her birthday. I would definitely suggest this for a quick read and a good laugh.

Funny and thoroughly enjoyable. I'd love to see it on stage sometime.
3.5/5
A quirky play written and performed by Mindy Kaling and Brenda Withers. They act out the roles of Matt Dameon and Ben Affleck as though the two are collaborating to write the screenplay for Good Will Hunting. I can see how this would be funny acted out as a play.
Jun 22, 2015Alexander Davidson rated it liked it · review of another edition
I read this because Mindy Kaling is a co-author, and I thought it would be funnier than it was. Maybe it's better to be seen with Kaling and Withers playing Affleck and Damon, but the play read as more serious than funny to me. There is a lot here about friendship and sticking together and choices/consequences as seen through the eyes of soon to be Hollywood stars. I think it'd be funnier to watch a girl fight between Matt & Ben instead of read about it.
This is a kooky, funny little play co-written by Mindy Kaling about how Matt Damon and Ben Affleck stumbled upon their hit screenplay Good Will Hunting. It's a quick funny read that's worth checking out. I wish I had been able to see this play with Mindy Kaling playing Ben..or even if Matt and Ben played themselves.

Matt & Ben The Play

This was an amusing play. Although extremely clever and insightful into character and the way we read into celebrity character, it's also clearly the work of young writers, still playing with form. There is a postmodern introduction where we meet the characters and they start narrating the story as if it's a film script. Once the characters start interacting, though, there's plenty of fun and funny dialogue.

This play might have seemed more clever if I knew a bit more about Matt Damon and Ben Affleck or just about Hollywood culture in general. I liked the concept of a script really falling from the ceiling, though. It led to some interesting dilemmas.
This was a fun play to read because I kept switching back and forth between imagining it being acted out by the real Matt & Ben and Kaling and Withers. I read it because I love Mindy Kaling and the play did not disappoint.

It's clear to see how and why Mindy Kaling got noticed from this play. It's very quirky and humorous, in which you get a sense of from her memoirs as well. I was entertained by the thought that Matt Damon and Ben Affleck have a silly friendship like this.
Mar 10, 2016Amy rated it really liked it
I've been wanting to read this for a while, even before I knew Mindy Kaling had written it. And it lived up to my expectations! I would love to be in a production of this play.
Also, there's something really cool about reading about parodies of famous people..I'd recommend this play.

Great script. Quick read. Love the pace and humor. Mindy and her partner are funny and thoughtful.

Definitely a fringe piece! I think I would have like this more when Matt and Ben (the people) were more relevant, but I got a cackle or two and that's about it. I'm sure it's funnier in performance.

Would love to see this performed by Matt and Ben. One can totally believe that this is how they talk and behave.really funny.
It's really hard to sit in a restaurant and read this without busting up laughing. I really wish I'd seen this now. Also kind of want to watch Good Will Hunting again too. Sort of.
Did this deserve 5 stars? Probably not, it's skating on sentimental value but I did enjoy it. Quick read.
Brilliantly funny adaptation of Matt and Ben's relationship. I think Matt's role was made for me to play..looking for a Ben!
It was fun satire but this is one of those plays that was harder to read and appreciate. Probably ten times funnier with Kaling and Withers and Matt and Ben. Still, I chuckled a bit.

I watched Good Will Hunting for the first time today and I finally understood this play! I loved this play! Great. Quick read but really funny.
I’ve had this on my shelf for quite some time, and I’ve always meant to get around to reading it since I’m a fan of Ms. Kahling’s writing and humor on The Mindy Project. Unfortunately, however, Matt and Ben just didn’t do it for me. A lot of the jokes had to have been super topical when it was written, and the format could maybe be used to redo it as an updated version, but as is, it seems really dated to me. Maybe when it won all the awards that it did, the writing was super fresh and new, but..more
Since I know next to nothing about Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, there were many times when I felt like the jokes went over my head. However, the strange, joyful plot of this play was amusing and kept me turning the pages. I would love to see this performed.

Entertaining. I read it while in discussion with a director about choreographing the brawl between them at the end.
Cute but slight. Mindy is a populist at heart. This one goes off the rails a bit but has a sweet ending. So all’s well that ends well.

The beginnings of Mindy Kaling's presence as a comedy writer. How I wish I could have seen this live.
Cute and poignant. How does friendship survive in Hollywood? It tells the truth. Always.
unremittingly fucking brilliant
First and foremost, I LOVE Mindy Kaling. I love everything she writes and acts in. She just has the amazing energy that I want to be near, I want to be friends with. I need that loveliness in my life! So I found out about this play that she and a friend wrote where they play Matt and Ben and Good Will Hunting just literally appears before them. It's equal parts hilarious and pop culture exhibit.
It's a great script too, I can imagine it performed in my mind's eye - it's the kind of thing I'd want..more

4/5
What a quirky little gem. I would give a lot to see this played by Matt and Ben themselves, just for the giggles, but I'd give my left leg (my inferior leg, granted) to see it with Mindy. However, as that is unlikely to ever happen again, I am grateful for this publication.
2018 re-read: Read this again to celebrate meeting Mindy today. No Biggie. (Huge Biggie)

Matt And Ben Play

Good Will Hunting is one of my favorite movies and I found the idea of this absolutely hilarious. And there are some really funny parts, especially the constant digs at Casey Affleck. It does get more serious than I would have expected at points. But I definitely recommend it.
