His wife Suzie (Kristen Wiig) has become frigid. Before he comes home every day she puts on a pair of sweat pants and pulls the drawstring extra tight, as if to say to the camera, this entry point is closed. Neither situation is to Joel’s satisfaction, but he’s unable to take responsibility for it. Instead all he can think of is escape…read more[Cinema Blend]


The things men do for women. Isn’t it bizarre? Friendships get ruined. Marriages get destroyed. Lives are forever altered. What is it that makes us trample others to reach the female object of our desires? It’s like a shark to chum, flies to poop and Cookie Monster to vegetables (he’s a vegetarian now). We’re so quick to abandon all hopes and dreams just for a chance to be with perceived beauty.

John Wells will write, direct and produce the screenplay about a man who is laid off and must cope with the financial and personal consequences. Ben Affleck is in negotiations to star in the film according to The Hollywood Reporter.

The project would mark the feature directorial debut for Wells, the award-winning writer-producer of episodes of television series ER and The West Wing.

Affleck’s own career is far from in the doldrums since his directing debut on the child kidnapping drama Gone Baby Gone. He is also starring as an ambulance-chasing lawyer in Extract, the new film from Mike Judge, the director of cult comedy Office Space and the King of the Hill TV show.

He will also appear in the comedy He’s Just Not That Into You and the Hollywood big screen adaptation of BBC political drama State of Play.

The Company Men initially had been set up at Warners, where Wells’ shingle has a deal, but it is in turnaround there; it has not yet been set up elsewhere.

No production date has been set.
