Matt DamonandBen Affleckare back together for the new trailer toKevin Smith‘s upcoming film.
The two actors made brief appearances in the trailer forJay and Silent Bob Rebootstarring Smith, 48, and Jason Mewes.
Smith and Mewes, 45, reprise their roles as Silent Bob and Jay, respectively, as they set out for Hollywood to stop a movie adaptation of their comic book counterparts, Bluntman and Chronic, from being made. The two characters have appeared in almost every Smith film since 1994’sClerks.
Jay and Silent Bob Rebootis a sequel to 2001’sJay and Silent Bob StrikeBack, but also to every film Smith has made fromChasing Amy,MallratsandDogma.
Affleck, 46, seemingly reprises his role as Holden fromChasing Amy, while Damon, 48, seemingly returns as Loki fromDogma. Affleck also played Shannon Hamilton inMallrats.
Also returning isJason Leeas Brodie fromMallratsandRosario Dawsonas Becky fromClerks II.
Smith tweeted a comical Batman-style comic look of Bluntman and Chronic in a “fight,” tweeting, “Bluntman V Chronic. When Hollywood rebooted the old Biggs and Van Der Beek cult classic, they took it in a more modern direction! You’ll learn who plays who when the #JayAndSilentBobReboot trailer debuts this weekend at @Comic_Con!”
Affleck responded to the tweet with, “Snoochie boochies!” a term that means “cool” and that originated in Smith’s movies.
Smith responded with, “And suddenly, just like that, I’m 25 years old again.”
In March, Affleck spoke about possibly working with Smith again in an interview withCollider.
“Your guess is as good as mine,” Affleck said when asked if fans would see his character, Holden, in Smith’s upcoming film. “I haven’t been asked to make an appearance, but you never know, there’s still time. We’ll see. I think if it was up to me, I would rather do Holden than Shannon but I would defer to Kevin.”
In November, a Twitter user asked Smith about their relationship, writing, “Sometimes I wonder what really happened betweenBen Affleckand Kevin Smith that made them not talk to each other,” tagging both stars’ accounts.
Smith responded, “If I had to guess? It’s because one of us has a big mouth and told too many candid stories that sometimes weren’t his to tell, and the other one is Ben.”
