Casey Affleck


Casey Affleck : Biography

Casey Affleck was born in Falmouth, Massachusetts on August 12, 1975 to Chris, a school district employee, and Tim, a former actor with the Theater Company of Boston, who now works at a recovery center for alcohol and drug abuse. Casey also has an older brother, actor Ben Affleck, with whom he starred in the movie Good Will Hunting. Casey got his first real acting job when he was only twelve, landing the part of Kevin Bacon's little brother in Lemon Sky, a 1988 PBS presentation. After he finished high school, a move to California saw him get that big break in the Gus Van Sant movie To Die For. After the film wrapped, Casey enrolled at George Washington University and at Columbia University. Casey left school to devote more time to his acting.

Casey Affleck : Career

The younger brother of actor Ben Affleck, Casey Affleck spent the last few years of the 1990s working his way out of his brother's muscular shadow. The younger Affleck, who remarkably bears almost no resemblance to his older brother, was born August 12, 1975, in Falmouth, MA. He made his television debut in the 1987 American Playhouse special Lemon Sky and three years later played the young Robert Kennedy in the TV miniseries The Kennedys of Massachusetts. The young actor's film debut came in 1995, with Gus Van Sant's To Die For, in which he had a supporting role as one of Joaquin Phoenix's slacker friends. The next year, he appeared in the largely unseen Race the Sun, and in 1997 benefited from the Power of Ben with roles in two of his brother's films. In the first, Chasing Amy, Affleck was little more than a blip on the screen, but in the second, Van Sant's Good Will Hunting, he had a decidedly more substantial part as one of Matt Damon's South Boston homeboys. Following the astounding, Oscar-winning success of Hunting, Affleck landed substantial roles in two films with casts featuring Who's Who lineups of Hollywood's Young and Hot: Desert Blue (1998), in which he starred with Christina Ricci, Kate Hudson, and Brendan Sexton Jr.; and 200 Cigarettes (1999), in which he appeared as a soft-hearted punk alongside Desert Blue co-stars Ricci and Hudson, along with Paul Rudd, Courtney Love, Janeane Garofalo, and brother Ben. Although the film basically flopped, it did little to hurt the actor's career and the same year he attained added credibility with an unbilled appearance in the summer smash American Pie. The next few years found the younger Affleck in some notable more noticeable roles with his work in Hamlet, Committed, and Drowning Mona (all 2000). In 2001 he would get his largest billing yet, as well as his induction into the teen horror craze, with Soul Survivors. ~ Rebecca Flint, All Movie Guide
