The timeless masterpiece that comforts imperfect lives, Good Will Hunting (directed by Gus Van Sant, distributed by Lotte Cultureworks Co., Ltd. Lotte Cinema), announced its March release and unveiled the main poster.
The main poster released this time was created based on the original poster shown at its initial North American release in 1997 and its domestic release in 1998. Good Will Hunting is a masterpiece often cited as a representative life film that has comforted many audiences' hearts since its release in 1997. The film tells the story of Will Hunting (Matt Damon), who has a genius intellect but is unable to open his heart to anyone because of deep inner wounds, and how he meets Sean Maguire, the true mentor passionately played by the late Robin Williams, who was called everyone's captain in Dead Poets Society, and unfolds his latent potential to the world.
Good Will Hunting, the film that launched Matt Damon into stardom in his early years, was written by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck themselves. In particular, the screenplay's origin as a short script that was Damon's college assignment — a 'youth' story written by 'youth' — makes the film more resonant. The screenplay that started as a college assignment culminated in the valuable results of winning the screenplay award and the supporting actor award (Robin Williams) at the 70th Academy Awards. Also, at the 55th Golden Globe Awards, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck jointly won the screenplay award, and the film was nominated in nine categories at the Academy Awards, including director, picture and original score.
The film Good Will Hunting, a beautiful movie that continues to comfort many lives with its sincere ode to youth by two then-unknown young actors, will be available on screen through Lotte Cinema on Mar. 4, 2026.<
