Jennifer Lopez recently filed for divorce from Ben Affleck, who is Matt Damon's close friend.

According to an insider, the “On the Floor” singer, 55, and the Good Will Hunting alum, 53, spoke for about 20 minutes at the afterparty for the film at the EPOCH Bar & Kitchen Terrace at The Ritz-Carlton.

"Jen and Matt began talking and had a long, deep conversation," the source said of the soon-to-be ex-wife of Ben Affleck and his bestie. The duo apparently "clasped hands" for "several minutes" during their discussion.

Though it is unclear exactly what the serious chat was about, Lopez filed for divorce from Affleck, 52, on August 20. The premiere was Lopez’s first big public event since the legal paperwork was submitted.

Though Affleck was a producer on the film, he was notably absent from the event. While Lopez attended the premiere solo, Damon was accompanied by his wife, Luciana Barroso, who was seen sitting with Lopez throughout the night.
