Khaleej Times
|January 22, 2026
Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, who were recently seen in the Netflix film The Rip, shared their thoughts on how the streaming platform is changing the way action movies are filmed.
-
The actor duo recently appeared on the Joe Rogan Experience to promote their new Netflix film The Rip.
During the podcast, Damon pointed out that because viewers give a “very different level of attention” to a movie at home versus in a theatre, Netflix wants to push the action set pieces toward the front of the runtime. He also said there are behind-the-scenes discussions about reiterating “the plot three or four times in the dialogue” to account for people being on their phones.
