Ben Affleck in L.A. on Sept. 6, 2024Ben Affleck remained in Los Angeles as the movie he produced — that stars his ex Jennifer Lopez — had its premiere in Toronto.
On Friday, Sept. 6, Affleck, 52, was seen stepping out in L.A. wearing a suit and sunglasses outside a building, seemingly on his way to work.
Meanwhile, Unstoppable — from his production company Artists Equity that he founded with Matt Damon — had its debut at the Toronto International Film Festival in Canada, also on Friday.
Lopez, 55, attended the film festival to promote Unstoppable. The singer-actress filed for divorce from Affleck on Aug. 20 after two years of marriage.
Damon and his wife Luciana also attended the TIFF premiere.
The new movie also stars Jharrel Jerome, Bobby Cannavale, Michael Peña and Don Cheadle. It is a biopic about Anthony Robles, a real-life wrestler who was born with one leg and eventually won a NCAA national championship in 2011. Lopez portrays his mother Judy Robles in the film.
Robles is also a producer on the film, as is Lopez's friend and producing partner Elaine Goldsmith-Thomas, plus David Crockett, Andy Fraser and Gary Lewis.
