“[Matt Damon and I] started this company and part of that was to finance movies. And I didn’t want to just make movies that were obvious or that everyone else was going to make. We really care about artists taking risks and really want to bet on great artists, so as a financier and producer of the movie, this was exactly the kind of thing that we want to do with our movies. Give people the opportunity, let them show the world how magnificent they are,” Ben told Extra.
“Bill Condon is incredible with this genre and Jennifer‘s in a role, the kind of role that she’s born to play. She’s amazing in the movie. I just can’t wait for the audiences to see this movie. I’m as proud of this movie as any I’ve ever been involved with. I’m really, really excited to be here tonight,” he added.
Kiss of the Spider Woman hits theaters on Friday. Watch the trailer now!
