Matt Damon driving a car in The Instigators
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The first footage from Matt Damon's Apple TV+ movie, The Instigators, has been revealed in the form of a high-speed car chase. Directed by Doug Liman, with a script co-written by Casey Affleck and Chuck Maclean, the upcoming heist flick follows two thieves who go on the run after a botched robbery and drag one of their therapists along with them.
Starting at the 0:59 minute mark, the five seconds of footage shows Damon's character, Rory, behind the wheel during a high-speed car chase with Chau's therapist riding shotgun, telling him he's "driving recklessly." Afterward, Casey Affleck's character quips, "Maybe I should drive." However, it doesn't appear The Instigators will be a rehash of past Damon-Affleck films set in Boston. Good Will Hunting was an emotional drama, while The Town was a tense thriller, and it appears The Instigators sets itself apart by being a comedy. This is highlighted in the first footage by Chau, Damon, and Affleck's humorous line readings, which contribute to the comedic energy of the few seconds of footage.
Casey Affleck, who co-wrote the script, says The Instigators is a "buddy action comedy" inspired by Midnight Run and Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. However, before the first footage, the film was mostly marketed as a straight heist flick. Based on the first footage, coupled with Casey Affleck's comments, The Instigators appears to be built on a foundation of comedy, setting itself apart from Good Will Hunting or The Town.
