- Jimmy Kimmel reveals that Ben Affleck and Matt Damon reached out to him to offer financial support for his late-night staff during the WGA strike.
- Kimmel respectfully declined the offer, feeling that it was not their responsibility.
- Despite this, Ryan Reynolds is indirectly supporting late-night show staff through Mint Mobile and Aviation Gin, which are sponsors of the “Strike Force Five” podcast.
During the ongoing Writers Guild of America (WGA) strike, Jimmy Kimmel received a generous offer from his longtime friends, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. They reached out to Kimmel and offered to personally cover the salaries of his late-night staff for two weeks. However, Kimmel turned down their offer, believing that it was not their responsibility to financially support his staff during the strike. This gesture showcases the kindness and generosity of Affleck and Damon.
The “Strike Force Five” podcast, hosted by Kimmel, Stephen Colbert, Jimmy Fallon, Seth Meyers, and John Oliver, was launched recently. In the podcast, Kimmel humorously referred to his ongoing “feud” with Damon and Affleck. Affleck and Damon, known for their collaboration and the establishment of Artists Equity in 2022, are regarded as good-hearted individuals by Kimmel.
While Kimmel declined the offer from Affleck and Damon, the late-night show staff are indirectly supported by Ryan Reynolds. Reynolds is affiliated with Mint Mobile and Aviation Gin, which are sponsors of the “Strike Force Five” podcast. Mint Mobile is providing the staff with free service for a year, demonstrating Reynolds’ involvement in supporting those affected by the strike.
The “Strike Force Five” podcast was created in response to the ongoing strikes in Hollywood by writers and actors. The podcast aims to generate revenue to assist the staff members who are currently unemployed due to the strikes. Diageo and Mint Mobile, the presenting sponsors of the podcast, contribute to this cause.
