Over the years, Ben Affleck has gained a repuation for being somewhat ornery and unfriendly. It is a perception that twice damaged his prospects of a healthy, long-term romance with actress and singer Jennifer Lopez, the pair finalizing their divorce in January having been separated for several months prior.

As the release date nears for his next film "The ant 2", Affleck appears to be struggling under the stress of the movie's release as well as the continued fallout of his divorce from Lopez -- not to mention the rumors surrounding his first ex-wife, Jennifer Garner.

Affleck glowers amid media responsibilities

After a recent paintball outing in Los Angeles drew attention for a public display of affection with Garner, Affleck on Sunday arrived to a press junket for "The ant 2" with a tense look about him -- just as an insider revealed that Lopez, despite her heartbreaking divorce, fully intends to get back out there and begin dating again.

"The ant 2" hits theaters in the United States on April 25, and news that a third film is in the works is an encouraging prospect for how the second movie will be received at the box office. It remains to be seen if work -- acting, producing, the lot of it -- can mend Affleck's broken heart as he faces potential rejection from Garner amid his separation from Lopez.
