How Ben helped JLo
In Atlas, Jennifer Lopez plays Atlas Shepherd, who is a misanthropic data analyst with a disregard for artificial intelligence. In the interview, Sterling said, "Every once in a while, Ben [Affleck] would read the lines for Smith. And I think the newlyweds, still very much in love, I think she just wanted to hear his voice. And so sometimes, the reactions that you got from her were because she was listening to her husband's voice."
