Kevin Smith reveals the wild film he plans to pitch to Ben Affleck: He offers to produce my cheap movies

Kevin Smith has a new idea about a collaboration with his longtime pal Ben Affleck.While promoting his new film “The 4:30 Movie,” the 54-year-old director exclusively told The Post that he would work with Affleck, 52, again “in a heartbeat.”In fact, Smith said he’s currently working on a new project that he wants Affleck and Matt Damon to produce via their production company, Artists Equity.“I’ve known Ben for years, and he was always a wonderful actor.

That’s, like, enough.But I think this is an Artists Equity worthy movie.
