    The latest collaboration between Matt Damon and Ben Affleck is heading to Netflix.

    The streaming service has acquired the rights to RIP , the thriller feature that Joe Carnahan is directing, The Hollywood Reporter has confirmed. Damon and Affleck’s production company, Artists Equity, is behind the project.

    Damon and Affleck will co-star in the movie and also serve as producers. Plot details have not yet been shared.

    THR reported last month that the film package was being shopped around town, aiming for a fall shoot.

    The two stars, who earned Oscars for their work on the screenplay for Good Will Hunting , most recently co-starred together in Amazon’s Air Jordan-focused film, Air , which Affleck directed. Damon and Affleck have also appeared together in such movies as Dogma and The Last Duel , and they starred in a Dunkin’ Donuts ad that aired during this year’s Super Bowl.

    Other projects from Artists Equity include Affleck’s forthcoming sequel to The Accountant and the Jennifer Lopez-led Unstoppable , both of which landed at Amazon MGM Studios. Artists Equity, which was founded with the goal of offering profit participation to more members of the cast and crew, is also behind the Cillian Murphy drama Small Things Like These that Lionsgate is set to release.

    Damon next stars opposite Affleck’s brother Casey Affleck in the Doug Liman-directed Apple film The Instigators , which also hails from Artists Equity and is set for release next month. Among Affleck’s recent credits is Robert Rodriguez’s 2023 thriller Hypnotic .

    Carnahan’s previous features as director include Copshop (2021), The Grey (2011), Smokin’ Aces (2006) and Narc (2002).

    Deadline was first to report the news about RIP going to Netflix.
