The actor and also producer were encouraged to give some details of something that has been asked the most lately.
Ben Affleck is one of the most recognized actors in the film industry. Amid the Hollywood writers' strike, the actor and producer were encouraged to talk about the problems of the audiovisual industry and the emergence of his production company Artists Equity.
When asked about what he pays most attention to acquiring and promoting new talent, he said: "The important thing is not capital and profits, but the human aspect." Ben Affleck was in charge of the first film of his company, Air, who is Matt Damon, a great friend of his.
Affleck expressed his empathy for the struggle being carried out by Hollywood writers, who on May 1 began an indefinite strike to demand better working conditions given the changes that the entertainment industry has faced.
"One of the reasons I started this company was to try to boost the talent of artists and give them adequate compensation for it," he said in An interview with Eph.
"Everything would be more dramatic for us if we were working on TV series, but without writers we can't develop new projects or rewrites, which is dangerous for the industry," he closed.
