Ben Affleck

“The trap for an actor is that you become too successful at what you’re trying to do, and you can find yourself stuck there.” He began his career as a child actor, participating in educational documentaries and fiction films. He gained recognition as screenwriter of Good Will Hunting, for which he received the Oscar Award in the category of Best Original Screenplay. From then on, he got more relevant roles, starring in films such as Armageddon and Pearl Harbor, although his success diminished for some years. His career was revived with a vengeance when he starred in, directed and produced Argo, which was a success both critically and at the box office, winning the Oscar for Best Picture and garnering multiple BAFTA and Golden Globe awards. With his return to the spotlight, he played increasingly complex roles and established himself as one of the icons of his time.
