Matt Damon has confirmed that he has a number of projects lined up with his former writing partner Ben Affleck.
The actor and screenwriter has been extremely impressed with Affleck's directing debut; the 34-year-old has recently completed work on Gone Baby Gone, a kidnapping thriller based on the novel by Dennis Lehane.
"We're not working on a script, but we're talking about a bunch of different things," Damon is quoted by the Winnipeg Sun as saying.
Commenting on Gone Baby Gone, Damon added: "His career has gone in this new, exciting direction. It's fantastic. The performances are great. Every actor is going to want to work with him after they see this. He's gone from being an actor to being a director and someone who can give me a job. It's a whole new dynamic to our partnership. There are so many possibilities (now) because he's gone and done this really great movie."
Damon and Affleck wrote 1997 film Good Will Hunting together.
