And so it was decided last night at the quarterly meeting of the International Hunks Association that Matt Damon and John Krasinski would combine their deep wells of individual hunkitude to create a mid-level drama. Matt Damon would direct the screenplay, which he co-wrote with John Krasinski, their two hunky minds working together as if one hunky perpetual motion machine. The script is based on a project Krasinski initially developed with Dave Eggers, well-known literary hunk. According to Variety, “Damon would play a salesman who arrives in a small town only to have his whole life called into question,†while the Hollywood Reporter describes the movie as being “in the vein of Erin Brockovich,†with one significant difference: THE OVERWHELMING PRESENCE OF HUNXXXXXX.
