Ben Affleck Debuts New Look at 'The Accountant 2' Premiere

Ben Affleck has been in the spotlight recently while promoting The Accountant 2 and working on his latest Netflix project, Animals. At the Los Angeles premiere of The Accountant 2, Affleck appeared with noticeably darker hair and beard and made candid remarks about his awkwardness with flirting, drawing parallels to his socially uneasy character in the film. He discussed the challenges of dating, especially after his divorce from Jennifer Lopez, which he described as 'drama-free' and noted that he is currently only 'casually dating.' On the set of Animals, Affleck was seen wearing a wedding ring, which sources clarified is for his role as a married mayoral candidate in the thriller, not a reflection of his personal life. Animals is being produced by Affleck and Matt Damon's Artists Equity and stars Kerry Washington, Gillian Anderson, and Steven Yeun, though Damon was unable to appear due to other commitments. Affleck has been described as being in good spirits on set and is actively involved as both actor and producer.
