Ben Affleck Steps Out With New Look Amid Divorce From Jennifer Lopez

This is Ben Affleck... now.
The Argo actor debuted a fresh new look amid his divorce from Jennifer Lopez, stepping out in Santa Monica, Calif., on Oct. 3 with noticeably darker facial hair.
His freshly dyed black beard and mustache were in stark contrast to the rougher, salt-and-pepper look that he'd been spotted with in recent weeks.
Ben, 52, was all smiles sporting his crisp new facial hair, opting for a business casual look as he picked up his 15-year-old, Seraphina Affleck.
The outing came over a week after the Air director reunited with Jennifer for a meeting with famed divorce attorney Laura Wasser Sept. 23. The Maid in Manhattan actress and the lawyer were both photographed arriving at the former couple's office, while Ben's car was spotted in the parking lot.
Ben and Jen have been working with Laura for months, an insider told Page Six, even before the singer filed for divorce Aug. 20.
The estranged couple, who tied the knot in July 2022, didn't sign a prenuptial agreement before getting married, a source told NBC News at the time of Jennifer's divorce filing.
Bennifer got heads spinning earlier in September when they were spotted together Sept. 14 for the first time since the "Jenny From The Block" singer filed for divorce.
The superstar duo had brunch at a Los Angeles hotel with two of Ben's kids—Seraphina and Samuel Affleck, 12, who he shares with ex-wife Jennifer Garner—and J.Lo's twins Max and Emme, 16, who she shares with ex-husband Marc Anthony. (Ben also shares 18-year-old Violet with his Daredevil costar.)
During the family outing, Ben and Jen were photographed sitting side-by-side in an SUV and appeared to be in good spirits as they enjoyed time with their kids.
And that cordiality reflects what William Goldenberg, the director of the upcoming sports drama Unstoppable—which Ben co-produced and Jen stars in—said about the former couple’s dynamic ahead of the film’s premiere.
"It's always been about the movie," he told E! News at the film's Toronto International Film Festival premiere Sept. 6, "and that's their personal business. We just kept it about the movie. We just kept her eye on the prize."
