Ben Affleck heaped praise on his soon-to-be ex-wife, Jennifer Lopez, amid their ongoing divorce proceedings.
The Oscar winner, 52, had a kind word for Lopez, 55, following her performance in the forthcoming film “Unstoppable,” on which he served as a producer.
During an interview with “Entertainment Tonight,” Affleck appeared alongside longtime pal Matt Damon to discuss the film and its early reviews.
Affleck compared the project to his other film, “Small Things Like These,” which stars “Oppenheimer” and “Peaky Blinders” actor Cillian Murphy.
“‘Unstoppable’ is a very different movie than this, but in a way, it’s similarly rooted in the passion of really talented artists,” he told the outlet.
“Billy Goldenberg and Jennifer and Don Cheadle and Jharrel [Jerome], and Bobby Cannavale, all were really passionate about this film,” the Oscar winner continued.
Briefly touching on the cast, Affleck couldn’t help but praise the “On The Floor” hitmaker for her moving performance in the movie.
“Jennifer is spectacular,” he gushed, adding that the film is “another one that we’re really really proud of.”
“We believed in the right people, and ‘Unstoppable’ is another example of that,” he added.
Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck on Aug. 20 after two years of marriage.
Though the exes have not hit the red carpet together since, the duo did reunite for a surprising PDA-filled brunch in Beverly Hills with some of their children in September.
While sources exclusively told Page Six at the time that Affleck and Lopez kissed and held hands, they also confirmed that the pair is moving forward with their split.
The insider called their blended family “priority” as they “amicably … work[ed] out financial details.”
In an interview last month, the “Love Don’t Cost a Thing” singer explained why she is “excited” to be single.
“Everything that I’ve done over the past 25, 30 years, being in these different challenging situations, what can I f–king do when it’s just me flying on my own … what if I’m just free?” she told Interview magazine.
While admitting that the “new territory” is “lonely, unfamiliar, scary,” “sad” and “desperate,” Lopez stressed that “being in a relationship doesn’t define” her.
“When you sit in those feelings and go, ‘These things are not going to kill me,’ it’s like, ‘Actually, I am capable of joy and happiness all by myself,’” she added.
“I can’t be looking for happiness in other people,” she continued. “I have to have happiness within myself.”
Affleck was previously married to Jennifer Garner, with whom he shares Violet, 18, Seraphina, 15, and Samuel, 12.
Lopez, for her part, shares 16-year-old twins Emme and Max with her third husband, Marc Anthony.
“Unstoppable” will be released on Dec. 6.
