Jennifer Lopez shines at the premiere of Ben Affleck-produced film 'Unstoppable' despite his absence.
At the Toronto International Film Festival, Lopez, star of 'Unstoppable,' impressed, while Affleck was seen in LA.
Jennifer Lopez made a fashionable appearance at the "Unstoppable" movie premiere, where her former partner Ben Affleck was absent.
At the 2024 Toronto International Film Festival on Friday, Lopez, 55, who starred in the biographical sports drama film produced by Affleck, 52, turned heads as she walked the red carpet.
The "On the Floor" singer stunned in a bold metallic silver dress with black velvet bows, silver platform heels, and a matching clutch bag.
On Friday, Affleck was seen walking through the garage of a building in Los Angeles while wearing a dark blue suit and sunglasses.
The former couple's most recent big-screen collaboration was "Unstoppable," which followed their previous collaborations in "Gigli" (2003) and "Jersey Girl" (2004).
The movie, which portrays the inspiring tale of Anthony Robles, a wrestler born with one leg, was produced by Artists Equity, the production company founded by Affleck and Damon, and features Lopez as Robles' mother.
In "Unstoppable," Jharrel Jerome portrays the character of Robles, alongside Bobby Cannavale and Don Cheadle.
Affleck missed the TIFF premiere of the film, but Damon and his wife were present. Lopez, Jerome, Cannavale, and Cheadle were also there, and Affleck joined them on the red carpet for photos.
Since her divorce filing from Affleck in August 2019, Lopez's Toronto premiere marked her first major public appearance.
According to documents obtained by Planet Chronicle Digital, the "Atlas" star cited "irreconcilable differences" as the reason for their split.
According to court documents, Lopez stated that she did not want either her or Affleck to receive spousal support and listed their date of separation as April 26.
In 2002, Affleck and Lopez first became engaged after meeting on the set of "Gigli." They were set to get married in 2004, but the wedding was canceled at the last minute.
Lopez and Affleck got married in Las Vegas and Georgia, twenty years apart.
In March 2023, Affleck revealed to CBS "Sunday Morning" that he collaborated with his soon-to-be ex-wife on "Unstoppable."
"Going to work with my wife and best friend is such a joy," he said.
"Working with people you dislike and facing difficulties at work can lead to depression, anxiety, and pain. On the other hand, enjoying your colleagues can contribute to a fulfilling life."
