Celebrity best friends Matt Damon and Ben Affleck have teamed yet again for a futuristic espionage thriller, “Incorporated,” which recently got the greenlight for a pilot at SyFy.
The bosom buddy actors have recently gotten the go signal to film the pilot episode of their futuristic espionage drama series, “Incorporated,” at NBCUniversal’s cable network.
The show’s plot will be set in a futuristic world where companies wield unlimited power, and the plot revolves around business executive, Ben Larson who is forced to commit corporate espionage, changing his identity to infiltrate the corporate environment in order to rescue the woman he loves.
“Incorporated” will integrate the elements of action, suspense, and dark humor in a world devoid of ethical boundaries and wrought with deadly consequences for taking on the system.
“Incorporated provides us distinct insight into a world dictated by our decisions today,” Damon and Affleck said in a statement they issued to The Hollywood Reporter.
They added the show will be presenting audiences with a very possible and intricate future with a story that is both timely and important, acting as a mirror to the present reality going forward.
Affleck and Damon will be the show’s co-executive producers under their joint Pearl Street Films production company. They have also recruited David and Alex Pastor, the brothers who penned “Selfless” and “The Last Days,” to create and direct the pilot for “Incorporated.”
“Incorporated” marks Damon and Affleck’s first cable project. They have previously worked together on their 2001 reality filmmaking competition series, “Project Greenlight,” which will return to HBO for season four this year. They have also shared an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay for the critically acclaimed “Good Will Hunting” in 1997.
