The actor acknowledged that he had contrasting feelings about his beard, sometimes considering it “cool” and other times worried he reminded him of Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees.

The spy thriller features the actor sporting shaggy locks and a full beard. The story revolves around a secret operation to rescue six Americans during the Iranian hostage crisis in 1979, which is overseen by a real-life CIA spy, played by Affleck, who adopts the style of the era, complete with bad hair.

The entire cast of the movie made a commitment to maintaining an authentic 1970s appearance. Everybody went for it. There was no vanity among the actors, stated the actor.
