And recently, it is reported that Ben Affleck and George Clooney are teaming up again for the Amazon Studios movie The Tender Bar. This time around, Clooney will be in the director\u2019s chair with Affleck in the lead role on the coming-of-age story set on New York\u2019s Long Island.

Amazon will no doubt have high hopes for the collaboration between the two A-listers. In addition to Oscar glory, their movie Argo earned a string of awards including Golden Globes.
