Ben Affleck opened up about his return to the 'The Accountant' franchise and said that the "real-life feedback" of the movie from the people inspired him to work on the second part of the movie.

In a global press conference for 'The Accountant 2,' Affleck addressed the common pattern of his movie choices, which includes not starring in sequels throughout his career.

"Well, first of all, you're right, this is a movie where after the first one, and it was successful and I was really proud of it, but it had a longer life in terms of like the just real-life feedback that I get from people, what movies they would mention when they come up to me, and so I definitely was aware like, "Oh, wow, that movie seems to still be being watched." I think it's also a function of the fact that, like streaming really started to take off after this movie, so people had the opportunity to pick what movie they're going to watch, that sort of thing," said Ben Affleck.
