Ben Affleck and Jon Bernthal‘s action movie, which made over $101 million at the box office, becomes a streaming hit shortly after its debut. After his Oscar win for Good Will Hunting in 1997, Affleck established himself as an action star during the late 1990s and early 2000s with roles in Armageddon, Reindeer Games, Pearl Harbor, and The Sum of All Fears. Affleck further established his action persona with his role as Batman in the DCEU movies Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League.
Bernthal, on the other hand, also has an equally established action persona due to his superhero role as The Punisher, debuting in the second season of Daredevil in 2016, starring in spin-off series The Punisher from 2017 to 2019, and recently reprising the role in 2025 for the MCU series Daredevil: Born Again. Bernthal is also best known for other TV shows, such as his role as Shane in The Walking Dead and his recurring guest role in The Bear, the latter of which won him an Emmy Award.
