Jennifer Lopez Was Helped By Ben Affleck On Set Of New Netflix Film, ‘Atlas'

A report by Jennifer Lopez’s costar in her new Netlix film, Atlas, indicates that her husband, Ben Affleck, had a hand in helping her navigate a few scenes.

Lopez plays Atlas Shepherd, a data analyst with a deep distrust of artificial intelligence. She joins a mission to capture a renegade AI robot, voiced by Simu Liu. The mission requires the assistance of Smith, another AI robot voiced by Gregory James Cohan

Lopez’s costar, Sterling K. Brown, talked about the interactions between Affleck and Lopez on set in an interview with Entertainment Weekly.

“Every once in a while, Ben would read the lines for Smith,” Brown said. “And I think the newlyweds, still very much in love, I think she just wanted to hear his voice. And so sometimes, the reactions that you got from her were because she was listening to her husband’s voice.”

It was not the first time the two have worked together, with the films Gigli, Air, and, of course, This Is Me…Now: A Love Story on the joint resume.

Atlas debuts on Netflix today.
