Actor Ben Affleck has been in the industry since the late ‘90s, hitting global fame with the release of Good Will Hunting, the screenplay for which he wrote along with Matt Damon and won the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay. The actor has since been an A-lister in the industry, having been in films such as Justice League, Argo, Triple Frontier, and more.
While the actor has been known for his resting b*tch face during many public appearances, the actor reportedly had a sweet interaction with fans. In an Instagram video, the actor was seen taking selfies with fans in New York as he stepped out to shop with his wife, Jennifer Lopez. A fan seemed to ask him for another picture of her mother, to which he obliged.
The interaction got much support from fans online, who defended his usual annoyance in public with him being shy and angry with paparazzi.

To me, this is a very rare moment where he’s smiling and willing to take photos with fans.

He doesn’t seem to be in a good mood but he’s still trying to accommodate his fans’ requests. He did the right thing which is nice of him.

Ben Affleck Opens Up About His Pictures In The Media
Ben Affleck has had a complicated relationship with the media and has expressed his annoyance at the paparazzi for a long time. His highly publicized relationship with Gwyneth Paltrow and Jennifer Lopez in the early 2000s reportedly led to his breakup with both stars. His relationship with his ex-wife Jennifer Garner was also highly publicized.
The actor recently shared why he has his resting b*tch face in pictures online, which has become an internet meme. In an appearance on Kevin Hart’s Hart to Heart show, he said,
I also don’t like a lot of attention. This is why people see me and they’re like, ‘This dude always mad,’ because somebody has their camera and [they’re] sticking it in my face … and also ’cause I’m with my kids and you’re taking my picture.
The Batman star also mentioned that he was baffled by the fame Jennifer Lopez had and called it ‘bananas’. He also recounted a story where he and Lopez had to fight through hundreds of fans at Times Square as they tried to get to a play.
