One popular collaboration first started in the late ’80s when two actors appeared together in Field of Dreams. They would go on to work together for the next 30 years, acting in, writing, and producing projects together. Of course, we are talking about Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, who will be together again in the upcoming film, Air.
