The Instigators Footage Highlights How Different It Is From Previous Damon-Affleck Boston Movies
First starring together in the Boston-set *Good Will Hunting* in 1997, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck co-wrote a script that received the Academy Award for Best Original Screenplay. *The Instigators* is the most recent movie produced by Artists Equity, Damon and Ben Affleck's production firm. Being a Boston-set heist film, *The Instigators* also remarkably resembles 2010's *The Town*, co-written, directed by, and starred Ben Affleck.
Still, it doesn't seem *The Instigators* will be a copy of earlier Damon-Affleck Movies set in Boston. While *The Town* was a suspenseful thriller, *Good Will Hunting* was an emotional drama and it seems *The Instigators* distinguishes itself by being a comedy. Chau, Damon, and Affleck's clever line readings in the first footage underline this and help to add to the funny intensity of the few seconds of video. Fundamentally, the idea of the movie—as Rory's therapist gets hauled along for the ride—is ridiculous and funny.
Apple TV+ Movie Revealed in First Footage of a High-Speed Car Chase Matt Damon
First video from Matt Damon's Apple TV+ film, *The Instigators*, has surfaced in the form of a high-speed automobile chase. Under direction Doug Liman and with a scenario co-written by Casey Affleck and Chuck Maclean, the next heist film depicts two crooks who go on the run following a failed robbery and bring one of their therapists alongside them. Along with Paul Walter Hauser, Michael Stuhlbarg, Ving Rhames, Alfred Molina, Toby Jones, Jack Harlow, and Ron Perlman, the star-studded cast under Damon and Affleck also includes Oscar-nominated Hong Chau (*The Whale*, as the therapist).
Apple TV posted a fresh "Coming to Apple TV+" video compilation today including first footage from *The Instigators*. Watch the video down below: Beginning at the 0:59 minute point, the five seconds of video show Damon's character, Rory, behind the wheel during a high-speed automobile chase with Chau's therapist riding shotgun, alerting him he is "driving recklessly." Casey Affleck's character quips, "Maybe I should drive," later on.
The Institigators: a Buddy Action Comedy
Inspired by *Midnight Run* and *Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid*, Casey Affleck co-wrote the script notes *The Instigators* is a "buddy action comedy". But the movie was essentially promoted as a conventional Heist Movie prior to the initial footage. Combining the initial footage with Casey Affleck's remarks, *The Instigators* seems to be based on a comic foundation, which distinguishes it from *Good Will Hunting* or *The Town*. Thanks to Rory's therapist traveling with them on their vacation, the movie should also have a few emotional discoveries with any luck.
August 2 sees the debut of The Instigators in a few chosen cinemas; August 9 sees Apple Tv+ streaming.
