Matt Damon and Casey Affleck have been friends for 43 years. Casey is of course the brother of Ben Affleck. Since Matt and Casey are starring in a new movie together, The Instigators, they did a Q&A with BuzzFeed UK. 

They were asked which reality television show they could see the other being a part of. Matt jokingly told Casey he could be a part of Bachelor Nation. While Matt may have meant it as a joke, Casey said his response wasn’t too far-fetched.

Casey said, “I thought about it. I thought that would be really fun. I swear I gave it some real thought.”

He even thought about what his season would be like. Casey said, “He went on there and just did it fully committed to it, really did it as well as [he] could.” He then added, “That was a good guess.” So, it sounds like at one point Casey was really considering being The Bachelor. 

Matt jokingly said it would be great television to watch but that he could see him being better equipped to be on the History Channel show Alone. 

Of course, that possibility is probably out of the question as he now reportedly has a girlfriend and has for the past few years.

After Matt’s guess, Casey weighed in as well saying that he could be Matt being on American Idol after all the talent shows he’s seen him compete in.
