Academy Award winner Ben Affleck is looking forward to Thanksgiving Day. The actor is happy with the release of the DC superhero film "Justice League," in which he starred as Batman. However, he is more excited to spend the upcoming holiday with his kids and ex-wife Jennifer Garner.

During the premiere of "Justice League," Affleck talked to Extra and revealed details about his Thanksgiving plans.

"Family. We're all gonna have Thanksgiving together, me and Jen and the kids. Yah, here in town and my brother," the actor said.

Affleck will spend Thanksgiving dinner at the house of his longtime friend Matt Damon.

"We'll see Matt and his family and have a nice time" he added.

Affleck also mentioned during his interview that he will take his kids to a regular theater to see "Justice League."

In 2017, the "Armageddon" actor and the "13 Going on 30" star called it quits, ending their almost 12-year marriage. The former couple has three kids: Violet, Seraphina Rose and Samuel. Affleck and Garner separated on good terms and have managed to maintain a good friendship.

There have been reports that Affleck is involved in a romantic relationship with "Saturday Night Live" producer Lindsay Shookus. The two were confirmed to be dating recently.

According to an exclusive report by US Weekly, Garner is well aware of the relationship between Affleck and Shookus. The publication also mentioned that Garner is okay with his ex-husband dating a new woman.

Garner was previously rumored to be dating "Wonder Woman" star Chris Pine. However, there is still no conclusive proof that the two are officially a couple.

On Dec. 1, it will be Garner's turn to walk the red carpet with her upcoming movie "The Tribes of Palos Verdes." The 45-year-old actress will also be part of the 2018 film "Love, Simon."
