Lately, Ben Affleck’s name has been synonymous with Jennifer Lopez. Since the two stars rekindled their relationship back in 2021, they have been the talk of the town. However, the pair is reportedly going through a divorce after getting married in 2022. But that doesn’t mean that they are not busy with their careers.

Back in February, Lopez released her ninth studio album, “This Is Me… Now,” alongside a companion film, “This Is Me… Now: A Love Story,” as well as a documentary film of the making of “The Greatest Love Story Never Told.” In both films, Affleck appeared. Most recently, Lopez starred in Netflix’s sci-fi film “Atlas.” And she has several upcoming films.
