Actor Ben Affleck is hopeful for basketball legend Michael Jordan’s seal of approval after directing the biographical sports film, "Air," which is based on Jordan’s historic deal with Nike.

Despite glowing reviews from critics and audiences since its world premiere in March, the retired Chicago Bull’s verdict on the movie still is not in.

The movie is the first from Affleck and Damon’s new production company, Artists Equity, which aims to ensure both cast and crew benefit from the film’s profits.

There was one key role that Affleck and Damon decided not to fill, and it was Michael Jordan’s.
