Headline: Ben Affleck reveals ex-wife Jennifer Garner declined to co-star with him in Animals
Caption: In an interview for Entertainment Weekly published this week, the actor-director recalled how Garner and his longtime collaborator, Matt Damon, were originally set to be the leads in his upcoming crime thriller. But after Damon exited the project due to his commitments to filming The Odyssey, Affleck decided to take on the role of mayoral candidate Mark Kimball himself - leading to an awkward conversation with Garner. "I talked to Jen, and she was like, 'We don't wanna do that. You just get baggage,'" he recalled to the outlet.
