Second time around for Affleck and Damon

Hollywood actors Ben Affleck and Matt Damon have announced they are to join forces again and put pen to paper for a new screenplay.

They shot to fame in 1997 after co-writing Good Will Hunting, which they also starred in with Robin Williams. The film also won them an Oscar.

However, World Entertainment News Network reports that the duo will now share their talents once again, after previously taking different paths and featuring in a range of projects after Good Will Hunting.

Affleck is arguably more famous for hitting the headlines, following his relationship with megastar Jennifer Lopez and his roles in action thrillers such as Changing Lanes, Daredevil, Paycheck and Armageddon.

Damon, however, may be seen as less prominent but has totted up a number of critically and commercially successful movies, including The Bourne Identity and its sequel, The Bourne Supremacy.
