Jennifer Lopez‘s talent is unstoppable.
The actress’ ex Ben Affleck—from whom she filed for divorce in August—praised her performance in the upcoming film Unstoppable, which he co-produced.
“Unstoppable is a very different movie than this, but in a way, it’s similarly rooted in the passion of really talented artists,” Ben said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight published Nov. 3 while promoting Small Things Like These, another film he produced. “Billy Goldenberg and Jennifer and Don Cheadle and Jharrel [Jerome], and Bobby Cannavale, all were really passionate about this film.”
The Air actor—speaking alongside his producing partner Matt Damon and actor Cillian Murphy—explained that he thinks the passion for a film’s story from the actors can be critical to its success.
“It speaks to a certain kind of thing I guess we’re drawn to,” he said. “We really believe in the power of storytelling when the people involved in it are deeply connected to the story.”
Ben went on to specifically call out his ex’s performance in the movie.
