Ben Affleck seemed to be in an unusually chipper mood while heading into work Wednesday amid his marital woes with Jennifer Lopez.
The “Argo” actor, 51, flashed paparazzi a rare smile as he walked into his office with an iced coffee and briefcase in hand.
Affleck, who recently debuted a new faux hawk hairstyle, looked sharp in a navy suit with a blue button-down, brown shoes and aviator sunglasses.
His apparent upbeat attitude was a drastic difference from his downtrodden demeanor earlier in the week.
On Monday, Affleck appeared downcast while driving to the set of one of his forthcoming films in Los Angeles.
The actor, who ditched his wedding ring, tried to stay under the radar by wearing a hat and sunglasses as he headed to work.
The movie star has been busy producing and starring in “The Accountant 2” over the last few months while simultaneously dealing with his split from Lopez, who spent most of July in the Hamptons without her husband.

The pair, who wed in July 2022, signaled that there was trouble in paradise after Affleck moved out of their Beverly Hills mansion in May.The following month, the couple confirmed split speculation by listing their 38,000-square-foot home for $68 million — $8 million more than what they paid in 2023.
Soon after, Affleck purchased a lavish Los Angeles property for $20.5 million. Meanwhile, Lopez was photographed touring several homes in Beverly Hills after arriving back on the West Coast.
Although Affleck and Lopez reportedly aren’t on speaking terms, we’re told the “Gone Girl” star is holding off on filing for divorce to spare her more embarrassment.

“She’s furious,” a source told Page Six earlier this week. “He has humiliated her. He was the one who initiated getting back together.”The “Gigli” co-stars met in the early 2000s and got engaged after less than a year of dating. However, the pair split in 2004 after postponing their wedding due to media attention.
They rekindled their romance in July 2021, just a few months after Lopez’s split from her former fiancé, Alex Rodriguez.

While the “Hustlers” star feels embarrassed for making a “big deal that he’s the love of her life,” she is also worried about their kids, who have grown close amid their romance.
“There are five kids involved in this,” added the insider. “She knew they were going to blend families. She has not fully accepted it is over.”
Lopez shares 16-year-old twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony, while Affleck is dad to Violet, 18, Seraphina, 17, and Samuel, 12, from his previous marriage to Jennifer Garner.
