Affleck’s been interested in The Middle Man since 2009 when he and Carter spoke with screenwriters Michael Yebba and Emilio Mauro while shooting The Town. The script for the pilot is based on a story developed by Caron, Yebba and Mauro.
The Plot:
Set in 1960s Boston, The Middle Man explores the unique relationship between Rudy MacAteer, an FBI agent charged with taking down the Italian-American mafia, and his confidential informant, Irish-American gangster Mickey Flood. As Rudy finds himself forced to bend the laws he pledged to enforce, the duo’s actions inadvertently give rise to the Irish-American mob in this timeless Boston crime saga.
