Ben Affleck is taking a well-deserved break to celebrate Thanksgiving with his children. The Oscar-winning actor is currently busy filming his new movie, “RIP,” alongside his longtime friend Matt Damon. The two were recently spotted working together on set in Los Angeles.
A source shared that Affleck is feeling great and enjoying his work. He will be spending the holiday with his kids, which is something he truly values. Both Affleck and Damon are also co-producing “RIP,” a crime thriller that has scenes filmed in New Jersey, featuring Teyana Taylor and Sasha Calle from “The Flash.”
Insiders on set have praised Affleck for his positive attitude, noting that he is a pleasure to work with. The camaraderie between Affleck and Damon is evident, and it seems they both enjoy collaborating on projects.
Affleck, who is 52, has three children with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner: Violet, who will turn 19 soon, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12. Recently, Garner shared the heartbreaking news that their family dog, Birdie, passed away shortly after Violet returned home for the holidays.
This Thanksgiving marks a significant moment for Affleck, as it is his first holiday since his recent separation from Jennifer Lopez, who filed for divorce after a brief marriage. Despite the changes in their relationship, Lopez remains close to Affleck’s children, while Affleck has not been in contact with her kids since their split.
Lopez, a mother to twins with her ex-husband Marc Anthony, openly shared her feelings about the holiday season, emphasizing the importance of family gatherings and creating memories during this special time of year. As both Affleck and Lopez navigate their new paths, the focus remains on their families and the joy of spending time together.
