Last July, Ben dropped out of the film to focus on personal issues and focus on his family.
Back then, he was going to star in it with brother Casey Affleck and Mahershala Ali, but both have had to back out since due to scheduling conflicts.
The Accountant star stayed on the film nonetheless, and has been living and training in Oahu, with filming finally begging on Monday.
Finally: After years in limbo, shooting has finally begun on the J.C. Chandor-directed picture
According to Deadline, 'Netflix took on the picture after Paramount let go of it after Tom Hardy and Channing Tatum dropped out weeks before production was to begin.'
The script was originally written by Mark Boal for his Hurt Locker partner Kathryn Bigelow to direct.
The film takes its title from its setting in the infamous border zone of Paraguay, Argentina and Brazil, however, that area has become less dangerous since the movie was originally penned.
Chandor has updated the script in recent years, and the picture will shoot in Hawaii, Colombia, and California.
