After 45 years of friendship, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon shared lighthearted critiques of each other during a recent interview. Affleck, 53, joked that Damon, 55, struggles with household cleanliness, prompting Damon to defend himself by claiming it was only an issue in his younger years. Affleck playfully suggested they consult Damon’s wife, Luciana Barroso, for verification.
Damon retaliated by highlighting Affleck’s chronic lateness, noting that his friend arrived three minutes early that day—a first in their decades-long bond. Affleck dismissed the claim as a “complete myth,” insisting his punctuality issues stem from being busy with other commitments.
The exchange followed Damon’s recent revelation that Barroso initially had a crush on Affleck after watching Good Will Hunting. Damon quipped that his wife chose the “wrong one,” though she later worked alongside both actors as a producer on their film The Rip, which Damon praised her for excelling at.
