News Bites: Ben Affleck Strikes Back!
It looks like once Ben Affleck cleans up the not-so-sexy straggly, shaggy-man look for Extract, he's going to town. The Hollywood Reporter posts that he's in negotiations to write, direct, and star in The Town -- a romance/heist flick. It's about a gal bank manager who has her heart broken by a thief "who stole more than her heart" and an FBI agent trying to bust him. Yes, more bad guy allure versus good guy aggravation, I'm sure. Ben has already got all sorts of Best Feature and Most Promising Director acc

Warner Bros has tagged Affleck to rewrite, direct and star in a big-screen adaptation of Chuck Hogan’s novel The Prince Of Thieves, which will be produced under the title of The Town – probably to stop people getting it confused with Kevin Costner’s Ro
OMG! So Ben Affleck Does Wear A Wig!
We’ve heard that Ben Affleck is no stranger to a good old wig, but quite frankly we were astounded by the length of his new rug when we bumped into him in LA yesterday. Ben donned the new Jesus like hairpiece to cover his baldness for a role in his new movie Extract. So what do you think about the toupee? Does he look better with the long locks or without?
Do you like Ben’s long wig?
Yes, I’d wig him one!
No, he looks like a com
Ben, Mila, and Jason Work on Extract, Not Emmys
Ben Affleck was back on the set of Extract in LA over the weekend and judging from Violet's pensive look, we may not be the only ones who aren't loving that wig. He was also joined by costar Mila Kunis, showing off her hot stems in tiny shorts. Jason Bateman helped round out the cast and also got a special visit on set from his wife and daughter. I'm already excited to see these three being funny together on the big screen, even if Ben's most recent comedic venture — the "I'm F*cking Ben Affleck" Video â€
