I’ve never seen Project Greenlight, a cable reality show where buddies Matt Damon and Ben Affleck pick one of several competing scripts, wherein the winner gets enough money to make his low-budget movie. I’ve never seen it, by the way, because I don’t have cable. Anyway, presumably in an attempt to draw more viewers, the latest edition will pick a horror movie script rather than the art house fare chosen earlier. Because of that, Wes Craven is also involved this time around. That sounds cool, and if this edition of show ever comes out on DVD, I’ll certainly give it a look.
Another advantage for Affleck of being one of the hosts is that maybe he can beg the winner for an acting gig.
