Ben Affleck and Matt Damon truly conquered Hollywood together.
The two lifelong friends from Boston began their careers as extras in 'Field of Dreams' and had small roles in 'School Ties', before Affleck made 'Dazed and Confused' and 'Mallrats', and Damon appeared in 'Mystic Pizza' and 'Courage Under Fire'.
The two would work together again for their breakout hit 'Good Will Hunting', which earned them an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay and jump started their movie star careers.
Both actors went on to have huge careers, and while Damon would co-write 'Promised Land' with John Krasinski, and Affleck would direct such films as 'The Town' and 'Argo', the two friends would not work together again until 2021's 'The Last Duel'.
They would go on to also star in 'Air', which Affleck directed and their latest film together, 'The Rip', premieres on Netflix January 16th.
In honor of 'The Rip', Moviefone is ranking every film Ben Affleck and Matt Damon have ever made together.
