Casey Affleck is an amazing actor! Unfortunately, he hasn't really been acknowledged for his previous roles. Many called his new movie “The Assassination of Jesse James” his “debut” role and he's a bit pissed cause he's been working in the industry for the last 10 years.
He says, "You slog away for years on end then, suddenly, everyone goes, 'Wow, where'd you come from? Out of the blue. Amazing!' And you go 'Out of the blue? I've been f**king doing ten auditions a week.' "I just haven't done many interviews, partly by choice, partly because no one's been that interested."
I believe his acting abilities were stretched in the movie “Gone Baby Gone” as he did an amazing job portraying the role he was playing. Oh and in case you were wondering, Casey is Ben Affleck's brother.
