matt and ben
Written by Mindy Kaling and Brenda Withers
​
Matt & Ben depicts its Hollywood golden boys, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, before J-Lo, before Gwyneth, before Project Greenlight, before Oscar…before anyone actually gave a damn. When the screenplay for Good Will Hunting drops mysteriously from the heavens, the boys realize they’re being tested by a Higher Power.
Matt & Ben is a warm, hilarious and often surreal comedy about two childhood friends, their breakthrough hit, and a lot of Good Will.
