Ben Affleck's next film is titled Argo and it's gearing up to start shooting soon.
Plot: Quote:
http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/15.05/feat_cia.html So far, only Affleck and Alan Arkin (Little Miss Sunshine) is part of the cast with more casting announcements coming soon. After the excellent Gone Baby Gone and the disappointing yet decent The Town, I'm looking forward to this because I'm interested to see how Affleck develop as a director. |

This sounds like it could be great. Affleck should stick to directing. He can only improve. He's a good one already, but this sounds like it could be his best.

I've read the article like 3 years ago, such an incredible story I can't wait to see how Affleck will handle it in the big screen. While I didn't like The Town as much as Gone Baby Gone, it's a passable movie. Affleck is still a relativity new director and has the potential to be a really good one.

Ben Affleck Cast Himself As The Lead In 'Argo'
Quote:
Back when it was announced that Ben Affleck was going to direct Argo, it was mentioned that Affleck might also star in the film as well though it wasn't clear which role he might play, but now we know that he will play the lead role. |

Kevin Smith stated today on the newest Hollywood Babble-On that Affleck liked Red State so much he lifted 3 cast members for Argo. He said, of course, Goodman was one of them, but the other 2 haven't been announced yet so he couldn't say who. Just that it wasn't Ralph Garman, his Babble-On co-host.
Here's the cast of Red State (minus Goodman, Garman, and Smith's wife) if anyone would care to speculate: Michael Parks Melissa Leo Kerry Bishé Haley Ramm Michael Angarano Kyle Gallner Nicholas Braun Stephen Root James Parks Kevin Pollak Matt L. Jones Kevin Alejandro Anna Gunn Betty Aberlin Marc Blucas Elizabeth Tripp Alexa Nikolas Hoc Sy

I for one, would love to see the original 4-hour cut of The Town, which I think is virtually the book on the silver screen. |

Not going to spoil the book's ending, as I hate spoiling for other people. But I do recommend Prince of Thieves, it's fantastic.
Although now that I think of it, the movie's ending ain't so bad, as you were left wondering if Doug and Claire would end up together or not, and if Frawley gave up his hunt for Doug. |

Awesome, looking forward to some promotional stills, definitely high up there on the films I'm anticipating - I think Affleck is only at the beginning of what will be a very great directorial career.

Affleck managed to round up a good crew as well, and we have a mini Damages reunion for this.
