JLo agrees! It turns out that Jennifer Lopez was one of the 12.1 million people who tuned in breathlessly for the fifth season of the Paramount Network hit show Yellowstone as they heard about the romance between Beth Dutton (L, Kelly Reilly) and Rip Wheeler ( R, Cole Hauser) was “dressed”.
Her fourth husband Ben Affleck (R, pictured February 5) told The Bill Simmons Podcast on Tuesday: “Jen showed me a clip from Instagram of a monologue [Beth] got in the car with the kid about ways to get rich. And then [Jen] was like, “I love this story of these two.” I said, “Wait a minute – with Cole Hauser? what do you love about it?”
Ben reunited with Cole to star in Richard Linklater’s 1976 teen stoner comedy Dazed and Confused, as paddle-wielding high school grads beat up an incoming freshman.
Then Damon, Affleck and Hauser all played fierce South Boston friends in Gus Van Sant’s brilliant 1997 janitor drama Good Will Hunting.
“I was always amazed that Cole wasn’t a huge movie star,” marveled Matt.
“When we worked with him he was 16, I’ll never forget that. [Ben and I] We drove back to Boston… left the set for the first week, drove to Cambridge and we said… “Let me and you out, who’s the best damn actor around here?” And we were both like “Hauser” at the same time. He was raw talent; just amazing…and just the sweetest soul.’
The Deep Water producer agreed that his Santa Barbara-born pal is “very convincing” as the Montana ranch foreman/enforcer who is in love with his powerful boss’s daughter: “I think America thinks he’s Rip .”
The final six episodes of the 14-episode fifth season of Taylor Sheridan and John Linson’s critically acclaimed neo-western drama continue this summer on Paramount Network.
