Casey Affleck breaks silence on him and brother Ben losing both parents this year, dedicates 'Company' to their memory

Casey Affleck spoke about him and his brother, Ben Affleck, losing their father, Timothy "Tim" Byers Affleck, earlier this year, during the 'Company' press conference at the 83rd Venice Film Festival on September 8, 2026. The news comes three months after their mother, Christopher "Chris" Anne Affleck, passed away at age 83 on June 2, 2026. Casey dedicated his directorial feature, 'Company,' to both of his late parents, expressing regret that neither lived to see the finished film. Ben Affleck was present in Venice to support Casey for the premiere, marking their first joint public appearance at a major festival in nearly a decade.
