Smith, Affleck and Garner will not be having dinner together anytime soon. In a new interview, Kevin Smith has revealed that his longtime relationship with Ben Affleck was killed by Jennifer Garner. Smith and Affleck worked on half of dozen movies together, but after marrying Garner he was shown the exit door. Kevin Smith claimed that Jennifer Garner did not like having him because of his language, but what she does not know is that Ben Affleck has an even dirtier mouth.
Every year, Kevin Smith hosts what he calls “An Evening With Kevin Smith,” at the San Diego Comic-Con, where he talks about everything.
This year, he was asked by Yahoo’s Kevin Polowy if he had any scoop on his friend Ben Affleck’s upcoming movie Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
Polowy asked the question because Smith and Affleck were very close, the duo worked on 5 films together between 1994 and 2005.
The Bob Strike Back star gave a surprising answer, by saying he has no idea what Ben is up to, because they have not been friends for the last decade. The filmmaker said:
“Great question. I don’t know, because we’re not f—ing tight. I have not been close with him in decades.”
The screenwriter went on the explain that Ben is now an Oscar winner, with a wife who never liked him, so he doubts such a busy and important man would have any time for him. Smith added:
“He’s got a wife, Jennifer Garner that don’t care for me at all . And plus, honestly, he probably don’t care for me at all anymore. He’s a triple-A-list movie star and shit like that. If he’s Jimmy Carter, I’m Billy Carter, to put it in ’70s terms. And I’m not even related and shit.”
Not too long ago, the comic book writer, revealed that Garner never approved of him being her husband’s pal because of his nasty jokes and his constant mocking and pocking of Ben.
Smith said that Garner had even threatened to beat him up if he did not stop insulting her spouse.
The film producer added that he was surprised by Jen’s dislike for his humor because Ben had nastier jokes than him.
Smith should befriend Mark Ruffalo because they have something in common.
Ruffalo revealed few weeks ago that Ben ended his burgeoning friendship with Jennifer.
