Ben Affleck: Paramedic on the Set

Continuing work on his new project, Ben Affleck was spotted on the set of “The Town” in Boston on Friday (September 25).

Dressed as a paramedic, the “Good Will Hunting” hunk has taken on dual responsibilities for the new movie – acting as both a character and the director.

Meanwhile, Ben recently spoke with press of his ambitions of doing more work behind the camera, telling, “I wanted to change how my life was going in terms of the quality of it. It was a little crazy and I wanted to flush some stuff away, and I thought it would be smart to walk away and take a break and that was a good opportunity for me to direct.”

He continued: “It was about two years I wasn’t in any movies and that was the best thing for me artistically and personally. It got me back centered and grounded, and made me realize what I love doing, making movies, the art of making movies and it’s not about me being on the poster. I want to do things I’m really proud of.”
