Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck have once again collaborated on an upcoming drama film titled “Unstoppable,” produced by Affleck’s production company Artists Equity, which he co-founded with Matt Damon. The movie is a sports biopic with a star-studded cast that includes J.Lo herself. Affleck has expressed excitement about working with his ex-wife, praising the experience of working with someone you love and enjoy being around. Lopez has also spoken positively about working with Affleck and being open to appearing in more films together in the future.
“Unstoppable” tells the inspiring true story of wrestler Anthony Robles, played by Jharrel Jerome, who was born with one leg and achieved great success. The film also stars Bobby Cannavale, Don Cheadle, and Michael Peña, with Lopez portraying Robles’ mother. The movie is set to premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival, but Affleck will not be attending, seeking to avoid any awkward run-ins with Lopez. This collaboration follows their previous appearances in films like “Gigli” and “Jersey Girl.”
Despite their rocky history, Affleck has reflected on the positive aspects of his relationship with Lopez, acknowledging the tabloid frenzy surrounding their romance and their infamous film “Gigli.” The couple, who rekindled their romance in 2021, got married in 2022 but later filed for divorce. Their personal and professional relationship continues to be a topic of interest in Hollywood, as fans eagerly anticipate their on-screen chemistry in “Unstoppable.”
