Ben Affleck and Matt Damon's Unusual Financial Bond in Their Early Acting Days
Ben Affleck revealed that he couldn't afford to cast Matt Damon in his movie "The Town" due to the actor's high salary at the time. Damon expressed his desire to have played Jeremy Renner's role in the film. Affleck explained that Damon's fee would have cost as much as the movie's budget.
