Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner are once again making headlines as reports surface about his alleged desire for a second chance with her following his divorce from Jennifer Lopez. According to sources, Affleck is “open” to rekindling their relationship, even though Garner is currently dating businessman John Miller.
“Ben would love another chance and would be open to giving things another shot,” an insider told Page Six. “At the same time, he knows it’s just not realistic at this time in their lives.” Despite these rumors, sources claim Garner has no interest in rekindling their romance. However, their recent closeness might have an entirely different reason behind it—an upcoming professional collaboration.
A New Project in the Works?
According to insiders who spoke to the Daily Mail, while Affleck and Garner are not romantically involved, a reunion on-screen may be on the horizon.
“Ben has so many ideas popping in his head. He feels like he knows just what to do with her,” the source revealed. “He believes her true talents haven’t been fully showcased, and he’s the perfect producer to find the right project for her. She has the range for both drama and comedy, opening up many possibilities.”
This potential collaboration has fans buzzing about the possibility of seeing the former couple together in a new film or television project. Affleck and Garner have shared the screen before in 2001’s Pearl Harbor and 2003’s Daredevil, and now, speculation is growing that they could be reuniting for another production.
A Look Back at Their Relationship
Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner first met in 2000 while filming Pearl Harbor, though at the time, Affleck was engaged to Lopez, and Garner was married to actor Scott Foley. Their romance officially began in 2004, leading to their marriage in June 2005 in a private ceremony in Turks and Caicos. The couple welcomed three children together: Violet Anne Affleck, Seraphina Rose Elizabeth Affleck, and Samuel Garner Affleck, before announcing their separation in 2015 and finalizing their divorce in 2018.
While their relationship has transitioned into a strong co-parenting bond, fans are eager to see whether their on-screen chemistry will make a return. Could this be the start of a new creative era for Affleck and Garner? Only time will tell.
