Affleck is directing a feature-length documentary about his friend's transition from life as an actor to that of a musician, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Affleck has previously directed several short films that have aired on the Sundance Channel.

What's JP on? Heroin? He looks and acts Completely INSANE!!!!
Shame because he has some acting talent!

I love Joaquin's acting,especially "Walk
The Line". He should have gotten an Academy Award for that movie.I also liked his singing in that movie.But a
rapper,I don't think so.His talent is
being wasted.X17,you did know that Casey
is married to Joaquin's sister?

He looks no different than Heath Ledger
did right before he died.. so what is the diff..With the dirty hair and beard.
It is sad when seeing people like this.
Casey was friends with both Heath and
Joaquin so WTF difference does it make!

Why would we give a flying F about a documentary on this guy? Seriously, who gives a F? Anyone? He "gave up on acting" because he couldnt get any jobs. He hasnt done anything in years worth mentioning but now we should care about the life and times of some douche bag who does too many drugs and gave up washing? Whatever.

It really must be a doc about a star's decent into drug hell, Joacamole just didn't get the memo. Betcha!

I agree it is probably really a doc about drug hell and fame. If Casey really wanted to be helpful he would get him some help, he clearly is not well and anyone can see that.

Who ever heard of an old and scruffy looking rap singer; rap is out, Hip-Hop is in. He doesn't fit into that either.
If he really wants to make the news he should straighten out, sing opera and take ballet lessons.
