Similarly, Robin’s Good Will Hunting co-star Matt Damon honored him on the 20th anniversary of the movie. “Oh, man, [I have] a lot of Robin Williams memories, good memories of him. And Ben [Affleck] said recently, it’s weird, we always felt like we were going to, we had this incredible debt to pay him back,” he said. “And we thought there would be time to do that and just the abruptness of somebody leaving like that, that realization comes that you’re never going to be able to pay back this incredible thing done for you. That movie got made because Robin said he wanted to do it. That changed the trajectory of our careers completely, forever.” If one thing’s for sure, you will be remembered forever, Robin.
