Production on Netflix’s highly anticipated crime thriller RIP has hit a snag due to Ben Affleck’s recent separation from Jennifer Lopez.
According to Marca, Affleck’s personal life has significantly impacted the film’s progress.
“With Ben’s divorce and everything going on in his personal life, production on the film has slowed and there’s no release date at the moment,” the source revealed.
Despite the project remaining active, “things just haven’t been progressing as quickly as they initially planned.”
The Hypnotic star has found solace in his long-time friend and collaborator, Matt Damon, during this challenging time.
The two actors have a storied history, having co-written and starred in the Oscar-winning Good Will Hunting. Damon’s support has been invaluable, with Affleck leaning on him amid the turmoil.
The delay has heightened expectations for RIP, which also features Teyana Taylor and Sasha Calle under Joe Carnahan’s direction. Fans eagerly await the film, given Affleck and Damon’s past successes.
However, insiders caution that Affleck’s personal life may continue to influence the project’s trajectory. As the situation unfolds, one thing remains certain – the anticipation for RIP will only continue to grow.
