In a candid and revealing interview aired in June 2024, Ben Affleck opened up about his preference for staying out of the limelight. During the season 4 premiere of Kevin Hart 's show, "Hart to Heart," Affleck, 51, shared insights into his life in the spotlight, especially how it compares to the public's reaction to his wife, Jennifer Lopez.

Hart, 44, started the conversation by asking Affleck if he preferred working in front of or behind the camera. Affleck, known for his versatility in the film industry, quickly identified himself as a "director," but admitted that he's "a little bit shy."

"I also don't like a lot of attention," Affleck elaborated. "This is why people see me and think, 'Well, this dude is always mad…' Because someone always has their camera in my face."
