The 41-year-old star is currently among the most in-demand actors in Hollywood, but has confessed that being a celebrity is a double-edged sword, reported Female First.
"The only upside is that you get to work on better scripts. But the fame isn't fun. I don't want that. I don't want the burden. I don't want the attention. But you get the opportunity to work with great people," Affleck said.
Meanwhile, the "Manchester by the Sea" actor admitted to being in a particularly good situation at the moment, as he is usually able to pick and choose his on-screen roles.
