Who better to head up a Whitey Bulger biopic than Boston’s own movie-making duo, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon? Affleck will direct the upcoming Warner Bros. flick, starring Damon as the notorious and recently arrested mobster and costarring Affleck’s brother Casey. The script will come from Terence Winter, the creator of HBO’s Boardwalk Empire. Damon and Affleck won an Oscar in 1997 for the screenplay of Good Will Hunting.
