Ben Affleck suits up for “Argo” premiere in London

My fascination with Ben Affleck started when I first saw him in 1992′s School Ties and it’s amazing to me that, here we are, twenty years later! The hunky Mr. Affleck hit the red carpet this evening to premiere his latest film Argo during the 56th BFI London Film Festival held at tOdeon Leicester Square on October 17, 2012 in London, England.

Joining him on the red carpet are Ben’s co-stars Bryan Cranston and John Goodman. I honestly have a hard time recognizing Bryan when he is not on Breaking Bad! It’s like I almost expect him to be Walter White all the time, how awful of me!

Argo has been garnering rave reviews on both sides of the pond and is rumored to a big contender for accolades during award season!

The film is loosely on Tony Mendez’s account of the historical rescue of six U.S. diplomats from Tehran, Iran during the 1979 Iran hostage crisis. It also stars Victor Garber, Alan Arkin, Tate Donovan, and Chris Messina.

Argo is currently showing in theaters across the United States.

Ben Affleck confirms birth of baby Samuel!

It’s a shame a source outscooped new parents Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck yesterday about the birth of their son but proud poppa took to Facebook today to confirm the good news! On his Timeline, Ben announced baby Samuel Garner Affleck came into the world on Monday, February 27th.

Both Ben and Jen have picked such great names out for their kids that I was glad to see they kept their first sons name pretty traditional. It’s a good thing they didn’t go with their daughters Violet (age 6) and Seraphina’s (age 3) suggestions or else little Sam might have been named Donald Duck or Peter Pan!

“Our girls are working on names. At first they were definitely Disney. It was like, Donald Duck, Minnie Mouse Affleck,” the actress, 39, told Jay Leno recently. “And then they’ve moved on. Then it was Peter Pan, Captain Hook, Smee.”

Congrats again to the happy family!

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck welcome baby boy!

I was literally JUST wondering when Jennifer Garner was going to pop and apparently she has! US Magazine is comfirming news that the power couple, who married in 2005, welcomed a baby boy in Santa Monica, California.

The Affleck’s are known for being super private so it doesn’t surprise me that we don’t know an exact birth date, name, or any other details about the new baby. We do however know that his big sisters Violet, aged 6 and Serafina, aged 3, are chuffed to bits to have a brother!

No one must be happier though than Ben, a huge Boston Red Sox fan who I can already see holding onto a tiny jersey, bat and ball.

I can’t wait to hear what the little tyke will be named!! Congrats!

Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck bond with their babies over lunch

Little Seraphina is growing up so fast, and no one knows this more than her parents Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck! The famous pair took their two year old daughter for lunch in Pacific Palisades, California on Friday, August 5th, 2011.

Those of you familiar with the Garfleck’s know how much they hate being photographed by paparazzi, so it’s no wonder they are trying so hard to hide from prying lenses!

Garner had been on solo parent duty recently while her hubby was away in Istanbul preparing for his next project Argo. Ben will act and direct the dramatic film about the teaming up of the CIA with Hollywood filmmakers to free hostages in Iran.

Wait did someone say the CIA is involved? Doesn’t this sound like a job for Sydney Bristow? HELLO!? BEN?! Why didn’t you hire your wife to star in this film??
