Ben Affleck he seems very happy these days!
That’s his new interview with Differentin which he talks about affairs, his previous wives, and more.
On the topic of social media and its rise as a requirement in the film industry, Ben admits that making an impact, when done right, is an honest day’s work. Choosing to mention his two ex-wives, Jennifer Garner and Jennifer Lopezhe says:
“Now your identity is on your social media. You’re working to develop that. I’ve seen both Jennifer Lopez and Jennifer Garner do amazing jobs cultivating and building value in those spaces. Don’t think that’s not real work. I couldn’t do it. What am I going to do, delete something?”
Ha! Not gonna lie, we’re sure a LOT of people would love to see Ben bust something out. Him just picking up the packages on his front porch was already pretty memorable, so can you imagine how smart people would feel to see him emptying PR boxes at random? Dooo it, dooooo it!

And, hey, maybe Jennifer Garner can help! After all, he says he wants to work with her more. When the commercial talks about his upcoming film Animalsthey mention how the star Jen and Matt Damon. But then Matt had to bail and Ben stepped in. When he did, however, he didn’t think it was a good idea to have Jen play his fictional wife after being his IRL partner.
“In a movie, the illusion must be the thing.”
But does that mean it’s a closed door forever, to be on film again with the ex? Daredevil co-star? No! He admits that while it would be too obvious to play a married couple, there are other options:
“I still want to find something related to her.”
Yeah, we’re sure a lot of agents still want it too. Nothing draws in an audience like an IRL mindset.

And speaking of… what about J.Lo? Is there any hope for an on-screen reunion there?
When asked why he thinks Lopez was caught by him Oscars for her work in Hustlershe sings her praises:
“I’m biased. I have a lot of respect and admiration for what she does.”
So what gives? Why didn’t she get nominated? Ben thinks:
“What I’ve found with awards is that the level of commercial success for things doesn’t always correlate to my taste. It’s part of this weird, subjective business where people bring a lot of their own stuff. I don’t always think the right person won the right award. At the end of the day, it’s just a bunch of people voting on film awards.”
A very advanced way to think in a fake business!
After all, JLo may not have an Oscar, but she will be remembered by far more fans and far longer than most. You can’t deny that her career is overflowing with awards!
And from the sound of this interview, his relationship with his two exes is clearly beyond any breakup. They may not be romantically involved anymore, but there is still so much love. Obh.
