Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
Ben Affleck and David Schwimmer are ready to become gambling buddies–the actors are teaming up to star in a comedy set in the world of competitive poker.
Schwimmer, Affleck and William H. Macy will star in the untitled comedy, Variety reports, with a fictional international poker tournament providing the backdrop.
After suffering through a string of recent bombs, Affleck gets a role he can enjoy regardless of the movie’s box-office success. He won the California State Poker Championships and a $356,400 prize in June.
Schwimmer, meanwhile, is still gambling on a post-“Friends” acting career.
