Things seemingly got tense between Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck while the two drove around Los Angeles Friday.

In photos obtained by Page Six, Affleck gestured in a very animated way while in the driver’s seat of his vehicle as a stoic Lopez listened.

At one point, the “Jenny From the Block” singer angrily looked ahead as the “Justice League” star spoke at her.

Another snap showed Lopez, 54, glaring at Affleck as the actor continued to speak.

Despite how the moment looks in photos, a source familiar with the couple tells Page Six exclusively Saturday that there was “nothing heated about their discussion.”

Reps for Lopez and Affleck did not respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

While it’s unclear what the two may have been discussing, we know that Affleck has recently been making headlines after sharing an intimate moment in his vehicle with ex-wife Jennifer Garner and one of their daughters.

As Page Six previously reported, the “Alias” alum, 51, was photographed earlier this month leaning in to hug the “Good Will Hunting” star, also 51, from the back seat of his car.

Their daughter Seraphina was sitting in the passenger seat beside her father.

The exes have maintained an amicable co-parenting relationship since their separation in 2015.

Affleck moved on with Lopez, tying the knot in July 2022, while Garner is dating businessman John Miller.
