Ben Affleck divulges details about his intensely competitive celebrity Wordle group chat, which features Matt Damon and other A-listers.

Ben Affleck has a Wordle group chat with long-time friend Matt Damon as well as other major celebrities. Since its first Wordle puzzle was played in June 2021, the online game has had millions of users seek to guess the five-letter mystery word daily. Now owned by the New York Times, Wordle has inspired several spinoff games feature more word opportunities, including Dordle , Quordle , Octordle , and even the behemoth Duotrigordle .

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY While promoting his Nike drama movie Air, Affleck revealed to The Hollywood Reporter his intense word-game routines, which feature an A-list celebrity Wordle group chat. Among the participants are Damon, Jason Bateman, and Bradley Cooper, the former two of whom also star in Air, adding up to a competition that involves “a lot of mockery and derision.

Octordle. It’s just Wordle with more words. Don’t be impressed, it’s not harder. I was invited to join a cool little red velvet rope celebrity Wordle group. Matt [Damon]’s one of them. Jason Bateman and Bradley [Cooper], and … Actually, the first rule of Wordle is don’t talk about Wordle. Unless you get it in three guesses. I used to do the crossword compulsively in the mornings and think I was good at word games. And let’s face it, going up against actors, it’s not a high bar.

Affleck and Damon’s friendship turned into collaboration when they co-wrote the screenplay for Good Will Hunting, in which they also both starred and would go on to win Best Original Screenplay for their efforts. This marked a major launching point for their career, and the childhood friends both became major Hollywood stars in just a few years.

Most recently, Affleck and Damon both acted alongside each other and co-wrote the script for Ridley Scott’s historical drama The Last Duel which, though scoring largely positive reviews, infamously flopped at the box office. Soon, the two friends will hit the screen together again in Air, which Affleck also directs. Collaborators as they may be, Affleck and Damon still have their competitive fun after all these years, as seen with their intense word game battles.

Nike was built on Steve Prefontaine, and University of Oregon! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 How is there no one cast as Michael Jordan in this film? He basically built the house known as Nike! Maybe it’s a wiki mistake but there is no one starring as Michael! Hmmm 🤔? Thank God for Michael Jordan, what would all those kids in China have done in their spare time without him?
