Ben Affleck‘s acting career has gotten a lot of attention in recent days, thanks to his surprise casting as Batman. But Affleck hasn’t lost sight of his passion for behind-the-camera work, and in fact has just signed on to direct The Middle Man.
The new project represents familiar territory for Affleck in that it’s a crime drama set in Boston, like Gone Baby Gone and The Town. What’s different about it, however, is that it’s not a film but a drama pilot for Fox. Hit the jump for plot details and more.
