Having enjoyed his time behind the camera as director for Gone Baby Gone, Ben Affleck is eyeing the story of slain Arizona Republic journalist Don Bolles as his next project.

According to the Hollywood Reporter, Affleck is in talks to direct the Arizona project. The story follows reporter Don Bolles, who was murdered in 1976 in the midst of an investigation he was conducting on political corruption.
