After winning a 1998 screenwriting Oscar for “Good Will Hunting,” actors Matt Damon and Ben Affleck have not worked together since both starred in “Dogma.” That is set to change in the coming year.

According to Variety, Damon and Affleck are teaming as co-producers, among Sean Bailey, Amanda Stern, and Fred Bodney, and will star in a Touchstone production set to begin post production in the coming months. The film is based on two Philadelphia attorneys, Michael Banks, and J. Gordon Cooney, who lobbied for fifteen years on behalf of death row inmate John Thompson.
Before production can begin, Affleck is reportedly working on his directorial debut, “Gone, Baby, Gone” for Miramax while Damon focuses on filming “The Bourne Ultimatum” later this year.
Both actors already have their hands full in fatherhood with a new baby girl in the Affleck household with wife Jennifer Garner and a new one on the way for Damon and new wife Lucianna Bozan. Both actors have yet to confirm involvement with the project.
