Luckily, Affleck has some famous friends to help him out. He recently revealed that he brought Violet, 20, Seraphina, 17, and Samuel, 13, to visit the set of Matt Damon<\/a>\u2019s new movie, The Odyssey, directed by Christopher Nolan.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cBut they were really psyched to come visit this set. My middle child\u2019s really interested in actually reading the\u00a0Iliad\u00a0and\u00a0The\u00a0Odyssey,\u00a0and we went there, and it was really great. I mean, it was just incredible,\u201d Affleck went on. \u201cThis is the way that Hollywood made movies, and they were great, epic, in-camera, David Lean movies.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAffleck also shared how Nolan is serious and \u201cbelieves the set is a place to work,\u201d although he did allow Affleck and his kids to come. \u201cI was really, honestly grateful that he let me come by and visit,\u201d Affleck said. \u201cMy kids really liked it. And so it was kind of cool. It was really, really nice. I was deeply grateful to him.\u201d<\/p>\n
