On Monday, Contact Music posted a story from the Sunday Time newspaper's Culture magazine where the actor talked about the challenge it can be to embark upon a new beginning in his career.

"That terror when I'm about to start something can be motivating," Affleck said. "It helps me kick my a-- into gear because I think, 'Oh my God, I'm gonna ruin this movie, I'm gonna not know what to do."

The actor went on about getting this push to try things out, and how his movie star wife, Jennifer Garner, feels about this.

"That's definitely a good, driving factor for me. My theory is that once you lose that, you're kind of going downhill...[but] it's very trying for my wife," he said.

"She's incredibly supportive and kind of patient with this, but I'll get into this thing of like, 'Oh my God, it's a f---ing disaster," the actor continued. "'This doesn't work, that doesn't work, I don't know what the f--- I'm gonna do.'"

Affleck then mentioned that Garner has pointed this out to him before, which makes her so helpful.

"She'll just say, 'You said this on the last movie,'" Affleck said. "You said it on the movie before."

This information can probably clarify that Affleck and Garner's marriage is continuing to go smoothly.
