biography:
Benjamin Géza Affleck (born August 15, 1972) is an American actor and filmmaker. His accolades include two Academy Awards and three Golden Globe Awards. He began his career as a child when he starred in the PBS educational series The Voyage of the Mimi (1984, 1988). He later appeared in the independent coming-of-age comedy Dazed and Confused (1993) and various Kevin Smith films, including Mallrats (1995), Chasing Amy (1997) and Dogma (1999).

After a career downturn, during which he appeared in Daredevil (2003) and Gigli (2003), Affleck received a Golden Globe nomination for portraying George Reeves in the noir biopic Hollywoodland (2006). His directorial debut, Gone Baby Gone (2007), which he also co-wrote, was well received. He then directed, co-wrote and starred in the crime drama The Town (2010) and directed and starred in the political thriller Argo (2012); both were critical and commercial successes. For the latter, Affleck won the Golden Globe and BAFTA Award for Best Director, and the Golden Globe, BAFTA, and Academy Award for Best Picture. He has since starred in the psychological thriller Gone Girl (2014), the thriller The Accountant (2016), the action-adventure Triple Frontier (2019), and the sports drama The Way Back (2020).

Revealed with Jules Asner

overview:
Revealed...with Jules Asner is a biography-style television show that first aired on E! Entertainment Television from 2001-2003. The host, Jules Asner, was a rising star among the network's stable of on-air personalities, and programmers at the cable channel decided she was the right person to begin hosting the existing series Celebrity Profile which had premiered in 1997.

The name change also meant a slight change in format; while Celebrity Profile had been strictly a biographical show voiced by an unseen narrator -- and without a fresh interview of the star featured -- each episode of Revealed featured a new, one-on-one interview of the profile conducted by Asner herself.

The first three shows in the series profiled Julia Roberts, George Clooney, and Matt Damon. Each had agreed to participate because of a quid pro quo: Oceans Eleven, their film being released at the time, was directed by Asner's then-boyfriend, Steven Soderbergh.

While Asner conducted the "main" interview for each episode, staff producers and associate producers interviewed everyone else whose sound bites turned up in episodes -- co-stars, family, friends, industry insiders, etc.

Asner and E! parted company under some unhappy circumstances -- she moved to New York and wed the director, even as network executives were unhappy with the series' declining ratings and Asner's increasing petulance -- especially regarding her unwillingness to ask anything more than softball questions during interviews for her show.

The countdown started with the tenth most requested video and ended with the most requested. As of October 22, 2007, TRL's countdown was based on votes, charts, ringtones, download, radio airplay, and streams, meaning that the most user requested video might not have been the number 1 video. The show generally aired Monday through Thursday for one hour, though the scheduling and length of the show fluctuated over the years.

biography: Actor, guionista, productor y director norteamericano, nacido en Berkeley, California. Obtuvo un Oscar de la Academia de Hollywood por su guión de la película El indomable Will Hunting (1997), compartido con Matt Damon. Comenzó a hacerse conocido en la película Mallrats, de 1995, para saltar casi a continuación a la fama con la actuación en, El indomable Will Hunting. Atrás quedaban diversas participaciones en otras películas de poca trascendencia, incluyendo el rol principal en Chasing Amy, de 1997. Se pudo situar entonces como actor de papeles centrales de películas de alto presupuesto, tales como Armageddon (1998) Pearl Harbor (2001), Al límite de la verdad (2002), Pánico nuclear (2002) y Daredevil (2003). Junto a su amigo de la infancia, el también actor y director Matt Damon, fundaron una empresa de producción de películas llamada LivePlanet. Su estilo como actor ha pasado por los más variados registros, desde comedias románticas a películas patrióticas, desde un personaje unidimensional como el de la serie de Tom Clancy, el espía Jack Ryan, interpretado anteriormente por Harrison Ford, hasta la compleja elaboración del amigo del genio, aquél que se da cuenta que nunca en su vida podrá salir del suburbio pobre en el que vive. Su debut como director, con la película Adiós pequeña, adiós (2007), con guión del escritor Dennis Lehane, tuvo buenos comentarios de la crítica.

Affleck ebben a filmben szerepelt először együtt ma már elválaszthatatlan barátjával és kollégájával, Matt Damonnal. Az elismerést a Good Will Hunting hozta meg számukra. A film forgatókönyvét ők írták, amit 600 ezer dollárért eladtak a Miramax főnökének, Harvey Weinsteinnek. Affleck és Damon ebben a filmben korukat meghazudtolóan dolgozták ki a történetet és a karaktereket. A nézőktől és a szakmától egyaránt elismerést kaptak. Damon és Affleck összesen 8 díjat kapott forgatókönyvükért (köztük a Golden Globe-ot és az Oscart). Affleck Gwyneth Paltrow-val volt együtt egészen 1999 januárjáig. Majd Jennifer Lopezzel, az énekesnővel volt kapcsolata, mely világszerte vonzotta a médiafigyelmet, el is lettek nevezve "Bennifernek", a pár 2004-ben vált szét. Szeret motorozni, öt motorja is van.

biography:
Ben Affleck ist ein US-amerikanischer Darsteller und Drehbuchautor, der in den 1990er Jahren durch seine Mitwirkung am Drehbuch zu Good Will Hunting berühmt wurde. Mit Gone Baby Gone – Kein Kinderspiel legte er 2007 sein viel beachtetes Regiedebüt vor.

Kann man sich vorstellen, dass selbst ein als Schauspieler, Regisseur, Drehbuchautor und Produzent mehr als etablierter Hollywood-Star wie Ben Affleck einmal Klinken putzen musste, um sein mit Matt Damon zusammen geschriebenes und schließlich Oscar-prämiertes Drehbuch für Good Will Hunting an den Mann zu bringen? Man kann. Denn es war ein langer Weg für Ben Affleck, um über die Independant-Schiene zum Blockbuster-Kino zu kommen und es zum respektierten Filmemacher zu bringen.

Die Anfänge

Der als Benjamin Geza Affleck am 15. August 1972 in Berkeley, Kalifornien geborene Sohn eines Sozialarbeiters und einer Lehrerin wollte Zeit seines Lebens Schauspieler werden. Und dieses Leben fand bereits seinen Anfang, als Ben Affleck gerade mal zwölf Jahre alt war. Da spielte er nicht nur in Burgerking-Werbespots mit, sondern auch in der TV-Serie The Voyage of the Mimi. Während dieser Zeit hat Ben Affleck auch seinen Freund und später nicht minder erfolgreichen Sidekick Matt Damon kennen gelernt, mit dem er in zwei Filmen von Clerks-Regisseur Kevin Smith gemeinsam auftreten sollte, nämlich Chasing Amy und Dogma.

Die Karriere

Die enge Zusammenarbeit mit der Indie-Ikone Kevin Smith  sollte sich auch bei der Produktion von Good Will Hunting mehr als auszahlen. Nachdem Ben Affleck und Matt Damon, unzufrieden mit Rollenangeboten Mitte der 1990er, sich nämlich selber den Frust von der Seele und eigene Rollen geschrieben hatten, fanden sie kein Studio, das den Film produzieren sollte. Nur über Kevin Smiths Kontakt zu den Weinstein-Brüdern gab es schließlich grünes Licht. Der Rest ist Oscar-Geschichte. Um sich weitere Freiheiten zu sichern, gründeten Ben Affleck und Matt Damon ihre eigene Produktionsfirma LivePlanet.

Trotz aller Euphorie um seinen Oscar-Gewinn darf man nicht verschweigen, dass Ben Affleck neben Blockbustern wie Armageddon – Das jüngste Gericht und Pearl Harbor auch kommerzielle Flops hatte, allen voran Gigli. Diese Produktion viel in die Zeit, als Ben Affleck mit Jennifer Lopez verlobt war und beide im Boulevard nur unter ‘Bennifer’ firmierten.

Nicht zuletzt durch seine Regiearbeiten Gone Baby Gone – Kein Kinderspiel, in dem sein jüngerer Bruder Casey Affleck die Hauptolle spielt, und The Town – Stadt ohne Gnade, einem Heist-Movie, in dem Ben Affleck selbst auch mitspielt, beweist er, dass er vielseitig glänzen kann. Privat hat Ben Affleck seit 2005 sein Glück in Jennifer Garner gefunden, mit der er in der Marvel-Verfilmung Daredevil gemeinsam vor der Kamera stand. Die beiden haben zwei Töchter.

Für sein auf wahren Begebenheiten beruhendes Drama Argo gewann Ben Affleck 2013 den Golden Globe für die Beste Regie und setzte sich damit gegen z.B. so illustre Konkurrenz wie Steven Spielberg, Quentin Tarantino oder Ang Lee durch.

biography: Ben Affleck to niezwykle ciekawa postać - aktor, należący do młodego pokolenia, który zdążył już zasłynąć jako scenarzysta, uhonorowany Oscarem i Złotym Globem. Te prestiżowe nagrody otrzymał za "Buntownika z wyboru" Gusa Van Santa, film, do którego scenariusz napisał wspólnie z Mattem Damonem - swoim najbliższym przyjacielem jeszcze z czasów dzieciństwa.  Ben dorastał wychowywany tylko przez matkę, która rozwiodła się z mężem - alkoholikiem, gdy syn skończył 11 lat.  Affleck od najmłodszych lat interesował się aktorstwem. Najpierw były to krótkie filmiki reklamowe, potem seriale telewizyjne i wreszcie filmy kinowe (w 1992 roku zagrał w "Więzach przyjaźni" Roberta Mandella). Jednak w Hollywood, do którego przyjechał gnany marzeniem o błyskawicznej karierze, nie przyjął go entuzjastycznie. Dopiero spotkanie z Kevinem Smithem, w 1993 roku, przyniosło zwrot w jego karierze aktorskiej. W 1995 roku zagrał w reżyserowanych przez Smitha "Szczurach supermarketu", a dwa lata póżniej w "W pogoni za Amy" tego samego twórcy. Te role oraz udział w kontrowersyjnej "Dogmie" Smitha, pozwoliły uznać Afflecka za aktora należącego do nurtu niskobudżetowego kina niezależnego. Nie znaczy to jednak, iż Ben stroni od występów w widowiskowych przebojach kasowych - dowodem jest zwłaszcza jego udział w "Armageddonie" Michaela Baya. Wielką pasją i ambicją aktora jest również reżyseria.

Obtuvo un Oscar de la Academia de Hollywood por su guion de la película El indomable Will Hunting (1997), compartido con Matt Damon. Comenzó a hacerse conocido en la película Mallrats, de 1995, para saltar casi a continuación a la fama con la actuación en, El indomable Will Hunting. Atrás quedaban diversas participaciones en otras películas de poca trascendencia, incluyendo el rol principal en Chasing Amy, de 1997. Se pudo situar entonces como actor de papeles centrales de películas de alto presupuesto, tales como Armageddon (1998) Pearl Harbor (2001), Al límite de la verdad (2002), Pánico nuclear (2002) y Daredevil (2003).  Junto a su amigo de la infancia, el también actor y director Matt Damon, fundaron una empresa de producción de películas llamada LivePlanet. Su estilo como actor ha pasado por los más variados registros, desde comedias románticas a películas patrióticas, desde un personaje unidimensional como el de la serie de Tom Clancy, el espía Jack Ryan, interpretado anteriormente por Harrison Ford, hasta la compleja elaboración del amigo del genio, aquel que se da cuenta de que nunca en su vida podrá salir del suburbio pobre en el que vive.  Su debut como director, con la película Adiós pequeña, adiós (2007), con guion del escritor Dennis Lehane, tuvo buenos comentarios de la crítica.

biography:
Benjamin Geza Affleck-Boldt, 15 Ağustos 1972 tarihinde Berkeley, Kaliforniya'da dünyaya gelmiştir. Bir öğretmen anne ve oyun yazarı/yönetmen bir babanın oğlu olan Affleck, çocukluk yıllarını kardeşi Casey Affleck ile birlikte Cambridge, Massachusetts'te geçirdi. Burada, ileride kariyerinde önemli bir yer tutacak olan Matt Damon ile çocukluk arkadaşı oldu ve oyunculuğa erken yaşta ilgi duymaya başladı. İlk profesyonel deneyimlerini çocuk oyuncu olarak reklamlarda ve eğitim programlarında edinen Affleck, gençlik yıllarında "Dazed and Confused" (1993) ve Kevin Smith'in "Mallrats" (1995) ile "Chasing Amy" (1997) gibi bağımsız filmlerinde rol alarak dikkat çekmeye başladı.

Kariyerindeki asıl büyük patlama ve onu Hollywood'un zirvesine taşıyan olay, çocukluk arkadaşı Matt Damon ile birlikte senaryosunu yazıp başrolünü paylaştığı "Can Dostum" (Good Will Hunting) (1997) filmi oldu. Bu filmle En İyi Özgün Senaryo dalında Akademi Ödülü'nü (Oscar) kazanarak, bu ödülü kazanan en genç senarist unvanını aldı. Bu başarının ardından Affleck, "Armageddon" (1998) ve "Pearl Harbor" (2001) gibi yüksek bütçeli gişe filmlerinde başrol oynayarak uluslararası bir film yıldızı statüsüne erişti. 2000'lerin başında "Korkusuz" (Daredevil) (2003) ve "Gigli" (2003) gibi eleştirilen yapımlarda yer alsa da, kariyerini yönetmenlik ve daha dramatik rollerle yeniden şekillendirmeyi başardı.

2006 yapımı "Hollywoodland" filmindeki George Reeves performansı, ona Venedik Film Festivali'nde Volpi Kupası'nı kazandırdı ve Altın Küre adaylığı getirdi. Ancak Affleck'in sinema dünyasındaki saygınlığını perçinleyen asıl hamlesi kamera arkasına geçmesiyle oldu. İlk yönetmenlik denemesi "Kızımı Kurtarın" (Gone Baby Gone) (2007) eleştirmenlerden tam not aldı. Hem yönetip hem de başrolünde oynadığı suç draması "Hırsızlar Şehri" (The Town) (2010) ile başarısını sürdürdü. Kariyerinin zirve noktalarından biri ise yönetmenliğini ve başrolünü üstlendiği, İran rehine krizini konu alan "Argo" (2012) filmi oldu; bu yapım En İyi Film dalında Akademi Ödülü'nü kazandı.

2010'ların ikinci yarısında DC Genişletilmiş Evreni'ne (DCEU) katılarak "Batman v Superman: Adaletin Şafağı" (2016), "Justice League" (2017) ve "The Flash" (2023) filmlerinde Bruce Wayne / Batman karakterini canlandırdı. Bu ikonik rolüyle yeni bir hayran kitlesine ulaştı. Yakın dönemde David Fincher'ın "Kayıp Kız" (Gone Girl) (2014) filmindeki performansı ve Gavin O'Connor'ın "Hesaplaşma" (The Accountant) (2016) filmindeki aksiyon rolüyle beğeni topladı. Matt Damon ile işbirliklerine devam eden Affleck, Ridley Scott'ın "Son Düello" (The Last Duel) (2021) filminin senaryosunu yazıp rol aldı ve Nike'ın yükselişini anlatan "Air" (2023) filmini yöneterek başrolde yer aldı. Affleck, hem ödüllü bir yönetmen hem de çok yönlü bir oyuncu olarak modern sinemanın en etkili figürlerinden biri olmaya devam etmektedir.
