‘Mr. Wolff 2 has been long overdue but so far silence has been held. However, Ben Affleck has now told Collider that this project may well see the light of day … in the form of a series!
He said: “We talked about it. There is currently a discussion about whether to make a television version of it. The screenwriter (Bill Dubuque) has had some success and he’s very busy, so he does his things Someone even told me that we only had to find an action movie script, readjust it and transform it into Mr. Wolff’s sequel… But it’s quite delicate because the character’s personality is very specific, it doesn’t really work taking any scenario and calling it The Accountant 2! (…) I’d love to work with Gavin O’Connor again and replay Mr. Wolff. I had a blast on this film. It was an interesting variation of the genre and I would love to do the rest. And then if they want to produce it in a television series and I get royalties (as a producer), it is also very good. “
As a reminder, ‘Mr. Wolff ’told the story of an autistic accountant who also works as a contract killer.
In addition, Ben Affleck recently said he was “nervous” about his new film ‘The Last Duel’, which is currently being filmed.

Matt and I kept saying ‘Why haven’t we done this more often?’ was lucky to have free time together in our schedules. Ridley Scott will be the director. And Jodie Comer will star in the film and Adam Driver will star in the film, so it’s very exciting. “
In ‘The Last Duel’, Matt and Adam will play best friends whose relationship is shattered by a major scandal.
The current synopsis is as follows: “The intrigue revolves around the Norman knight, Jean de Carrouges, and his squire Jacques Le Gris. De Carrouges goes to war and on his return discovers his wife Marguerite (Jodie Comer) disoriented. He claims to have been raped by his longtime friend Jacque Le Gris, but as no one believes, the soldier is appealing to the judgment of King Charles VI himself. A duel is organized between the two men, the outcome of which will determine the Verdict: Whoever wins the fight will be declared the winner according to the will of God. If de Carrouges loses, his wife will be burned at the stake for false accusation. “
