After Jennifer Lopez’s divorce, Ben Affleck became enamored with Sydney Sweeney

However, “Ben has been crushing on Sydney for a while,” said an insider.

The source told the outlet, “Just like nearly every other man in the world, he thinks she’s incredibly hot and he’d love a chance to take her out.”

Another source pointed out that the Argo director “swears his interest goes beyond Sydney’s looks”.

“She’s already making moves in Hollywood as a producer, and he thinks that’s incredibly impressive,” remarked an insider.

The source further said that Ben “has heard great things about her intelligence and business savvy through the grapevine, so he’s very eager to meet her and see for himself”.

“He’s been asking around and putting it out there that he wants to get an introduction,” continued an insider.

Although Ben and Sydney’s 30-year age gap makes the Deep Water actor old enough to be her sugar daddy, the insider revealed, “It isn’t a concern for him but it might be for Sydney.”

“If she were the typical 27-year-old that loved to go out clubbing, he’d be turned off,” noted an insider.

But, the source added, “Sydney is actually known to be a homebody, not out on the party scene. She’s driven and confident, which are qualities that Ben has always been drawn to.”
