Ben Affleck and Matt Damon working on new screenplay together


Almost ten years after they earned an Oscar for Good Will Hunting, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck are said to be writing another screenplay together! They’ve spent a two vacation in Hawaii with their families, and it wasn’t just for fun. The two were holed up working:

The wonder boys are working together on a new screenplay, an insider tells Us Weekly.

“They’re really excited about it,” says the source.

The childhood pals wrote GWH during the early ’90s.

And what a difference a decade makes!

Then, the struggling actors shared an apartment in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

Now the screen idols have spent two weeks getting their creative juices flowing in a $13,000-a-week house in Kauai, Hawaii.

“Ben and Matt keep taking breaks to go surfing and hang out with their families,” adds the source. “But for the most part, they’ve been writing together on this trip.”

The NY Daily News reports that Damon’s rep says they’re planning to write together again, but is not sure if they’re doing it now.

That’s great news and it’s good to see that these two are still friends. It’s even cuter to see their two families together.

I’m sure that whatever they create will be thoughtful and well done, and I can’t wait to see what they come up with.
