“Jen and Matt got to talking and had a long, deep conversation,” the insider said, revealing that they held hands and chatted for several minutes.

Matt was also joined by his wife Luciana Barroso, 48, who looked stunning in a tight, plunging black dress.

Meanwhile, all eyes were on Lopez at the premiere, as she wore a sultry dress that was completely open at the sides and fastened only with three black bows.

She teamed her silver, disco ball-inspired Tamara Ralph dress with a pair of open-toe heels and Hassanzadeh jewelry.

The Hustlers actress wore her waist-length light brown hair in loose waves that cascaded down her back.

Her appearance comes just two and a half weeks after she filed for divorce on her two-year wedding anniversary to Affleck.

Despite the fact that her fourth marriage was on the rocks, a source told DailyMail.com that the Let’s Get Loud filmmaker was happy to “go to the Toronto Film Festival to promote this film because Unstoppable means a lot to her and she wants to support the film.”

“It’s a true life story that’s very inspiring and she’s proud to be a part of it. Acting in the film was a highlight for her,” the insider added.

“The film has received a lot of attention and Jennifer wants it to do as well as possible. She is very professional and always works hard to give her films the best chance.”

Lopez plays a supporting role as the mother of a wrestler in the film, which has already received Oscar nominations.

The source noted that it will be a “quick trip” for the artist “as she has other things on her mind.”

DailyMail.com reported earlier this week that certain producers of the film “tried to get the two to appear together at the Toronto premiere to create buzz around the film.”

But those producers didn’t get their way, because now only one of them will be present.

The project comes from Ben’s production company Artists Equity, which he co-founded with Damon.

Affleck and Damon are among the film’s 14 producers.

The film will screen in the Special Presentations section at the Toronto International Film Festival, followed by a limited theatrical release in December 2024, via Amazon MGM Studios.
