Ben Affleck Explains Why 'Good Will Hunting' Never Got a Sequel

Ben Affleck is once again pulling double duty in front of and
behind the camera. This time he's directing the new crime drama
"Live by Night." The film takes you back to those days when
gangster movies were all the rage. Many dedicated Affleck fans will
note that "Live by Night" pushes Affleck's directing credits to
more than half a dozen. Still, Affleck says he's "terrified" of
directing because "it's such a big job." His next directorial
project will be the next Batman movie. So many great projects, but
no sequel to "Good Will Hunting" -- the film that launched him to
fame. Wait till you hear why he says it hasn't happened after all
these years. * ABOUT POPCORN WITH PETER TRAVERS: This show features
