Jennifer Lopez and her ex-husband Ben Affleck have reunited, with the former couple seen getting close on the red carpet.
Nine months after finalising their divorce, the Hollywood stars appeared in high spirits as they attended the New York premiere of Kiss of the Spider Woman together.
Lopez leads the cast of the upcoming musical film, which was executive produced by Affleck and co-produced by Artist Equity, the production company he co-founded with Matt Damon.

At the event, the pair — who rekindled their relationship in 2021 and married in July 2022 — posed side by side to celebrate the project.
Several photos captured the two chatting warmly on the red carpet.
For the October 6 premiere, Lopez wore a green, off-the-shoulder floral gown featuring a dramatic spider-inspired detail at the waist, while Affleck opted for a classic navy suit paired with an open-collared white shirt.
Ahead of the screening, PEOPLE reported Lopez introduced the film and thanked her ex-husband.
“Thank you so much, thank you everybody for being here tonight,” Lopez said.
“Thank you, Ben, this movie wouldn’t have been made without Ben and without Artist Equity.”
Inside the theatre, Affleck also praised his ex-wife for her performance in the movie.
“This movie is exquisite,” he said in a video obtained by PEOPLE. “Jennifer, you’re incredible.”
Affleck’s appearance at the premiere marks a notably supportive gesture following his and Lopez’s divorce earlier this year.
The former couple’s relationship has spanned over two decades, first beginning in 2002 when they met and started dating after working together.
They quickly became one of Hollywood’s most talked-about pairs, eventually getting engaged.
However, in 2004, they called off the engagement and went their separate ways, each going on to build families and careers apart.
Seventeen years later, in 2021, they rekindled their romance — a reunion that sparked widespread media attention. Just over a year later, in July 2022, they tied the knot in an intimate Las Vegas ceremony. The celebrations continued the following month with a second, larger wedding in Georgia, surrounded by friends and family.
Despite their renewed commitment, the marriage came to an end in 2024, with the pair citing irreconcilable differences. Their divorce was finalised in January 2025.
