Ben Affleck is reportedly begging Jennifer Lopez to team up with him on his upcoming movie project. The "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" actor previously wanted to cast her in one of his films, but his then-wife Jennifer Garner disapproved the idea.

"Ben has nothing but praise and admiration for Jennifer as an actress; it still burns him to this day that they got so ridiculed for 'Gigli' [the former coupleâ€™s infamous 2003 film flop]," a source reveals.

"He wanted to cast her in last year's 'Live By Night' but had to pick Zoe Saldana instead because Jennifer [Garner] banned the J.Lo idea from the get-go," the source tells Radar Online, "When that movie bombed he blamed the fact he couldn't cast his first choice."

Editors' Pick

Following his divorce from Garner, Affleck is ready to move on and does things his own way, including making movie with J.Lo. The source says, "He swears this isn't about any kind of crush he has on Jennifer but that he wants to right the wrong with a script that would bring them both a great sense of closure."
