Affleck gets Judge’s Extract
Ben Affleck has joined Miramax’s new Mike Judge comedy, Extract.
According to Variety, the actor is in negotiations to play an ambulance-chasing lawyer in the film, which centers on a flower extract factory owner (Jason Bateman) who’s dealing with workplace problems and a streak of bad luck, including his wife’s affair with a gigolo.
Clifton Collins Jr. is also joining the cast as a factory worker who loses a body part in a freak accident and is now due for a huge settlement. Mila Kunis and Kristen Wiig have already boarded the project.
I love Mike Judge’s comedies and I love Jason Bateman. This movie seems to be heading in a good direction. Also the fact that Affleck is in the comedy I like too, because funny Ben I tolerate opposed to any other Ben.
Can’t wait to hear more!
