Ben Affleck Joins Robert Rodriguez's New Action Thriller HYPNOTIC
Ben Affleck is set to star in director Robert Rodriguez’s upcoming action-thriller film project Hypnotic. Affleck will play “a detective who becomes entangled in a mystery involving his missing daughter and a secret government program while investigating a string of impossible high-end heists.”
Affleck has a super busy schedule, but Rodriguez and the producers are trying to change their production dates to accommodate Affleck. They are hoping to start filming in April.
The fact that Affleck has agreed to join the project tells me that it’s gotta be good. The guy has been very picky with the projects he takes on, and his most recent choices have been good ones. While what we know about the story doesn’t seem like anything special, I’m sure that Rodriguez will do something fun and unique with it.
Affleck recently wrapped the Netflix movie The Last Thing He Wanted, opposite Anne Hathaway, and also has the basketball drama The Way Back. He is also set to star in the New Regency thriller Deep Water, co-starring Ana de Armas, followed by the Ridley Scott period drama The Last Duel, with Matt Damon and Adam Driver.
