Matt Damon feels ‘really lucky’ to still be making films with the Affleck brothers.
The 53-year-old actor features alongside Casey Affleck in the heist comedy The Instigators – which has been produced by Ben Affleck – and is grateful that their childhood friendship has been preserved in Hollywood.
Matt told The Hollywood Reporter at the picture’s New York premiere on Wednesday: ‘I think just 43 years into this friendship, it’s just the joy of doing what we love, but being able to do it together. It just doesn’t get any better than that.
‘I feel really lucky to be able to still be making movies at this level with the kind of people that I get to work with.
‘But when some of them are the people that have been my closest and dearest friends for over four decades, it’s a really special thing.’
But Damon avoided talking about Ben’s state of mind these days as his marriage to Jennifer Lopez crumbles. Ben has not been photographed with Jennifer in two months as she has been spending time in New York.

Damon explained that he took comfort from filming the Apple TV+ project in the ‘familiar’ surroundings of Boston, the city in which he and the Affleck siblings grew up.
The Oppenheimer actor said: ‘It feels really familiar to go home.
‘The sensibility there, the sense of humour is something that just comes naturally to us.
‘And it’s just a really comfortable place, it feels like going home every time.’
Damon also told People that Ben and Casey are real pros.
‘They’re consistently great,’ he explains. ‘They’re consistently incredible partners to work with. And no, there aren’t really, usually, any surprises.’
While the three collaborators will ‘get in creative arguments,’ Damon notes, ‘those are healthy, and we know each other well enough that our feelings don’t really get involved and our egos don’t get involved.’
