🛒 Distil Union - Problem-Solving Men's Accessories 💰 Get 20% OFF | Promo Code: POINT https://distilunion.com/discount/POINT Ben Affleck just made headlines with a blockbuster business move, selling his AI startup Interpositive to Netflix for up to 600 million dollars, according to TMZ and Bounding Into Comics reports. The stealth company, which he quietly launched in 2022 for post-production editing tools that help filmmakers tweak their own footage rather than generate from scratch, positions Affleck as a Netflix adviser while integrating his team. This deal, potentially the streamers second largest ever, has reignited Hollywoods AI debates amid ongoing guild tensions, though Affleck has long praised non-generative AI as a cost-saving ally, as he shared on the Joe Rogan podcast last month promoting The Rip with Matt Damon. Hot on that, RGM Watch Co posted photos yesterday of Ben sporting their sleek new Model 501 on his wrist, a stylish nod to his evolving personal brand beyond the blockbuster spotlight. Teaming up again with Damon through their Artists Equity banner, they unveiled a Writers Room in-house development initiative on March 19 per WTyeFM, inviting pitches across genres to nurture original screenplays into packaged dealsa savvy expansion with long-term impact on indie filmmaking. No fresh public appearances in the last few days, but real estate buzz notes a March 18 YouTube video spotlighting his and Kevin Smiths former Hollywood Hills home. Meanwhile, Netflix fired back at Affleck and Damons January jab claiming the streamer demands plot-repeating scripts for phone-scrolling viewers, with execs denying it via Mens Journal and Esquire UK. Social media stays quiet on Bens end, no verified posts or mentions popping up. In the past 24 hours, no major new headlines beyond the AI sale ripples, all confirmed from these outlets with zero unverified speculation.
