His career traces back to his childhood, to 1984, when he made his acting debut in the educational <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> <em>The Voyage of the Mimi<\/em>, and from there he went on to star in hit films throughout the 1990s. Of course, his best project of that time would arrive near the end of the decade: in 1997, Affleck co-wrote with his friend Matt Damon the screenplay for <em>Good Will Hunting<\/em>, in which they were also part of the cast. Both Affleck and Damon ultimately won a Golden Globe and Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay for this film.<br \/>\n<!-- No winning ad found for zone: word count #1! --><br \/>\n<!-- No winning ad found for zone: below first paragraph! --><br \/>\n<!-- No winning ad found for zone: mid intro! --><br \/>\nFollowing a hugely successful decade, Affleck established himself as a leading man, <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>earing in a large number of productions. However, by 2003, his career took a downturn when a string of films were poorly reviewed by critics and audiences, among them <em>Daredevil<\/em> and <em>Gigli<\/em>, though he believes that the latter&#8217;s failure was actually a blessing in disguise, as it sparked his interest in directing and effectively launched his career as a filmmaker. In this new role, Affleck directed hits like <em>Gone Baby Gone<\/em> and <em>Argo<\/em>. Despite that minor rough patch, there are still many of the actor&#8217;s 2000s films that are worth adding to your watchlist.
