Ben Affleck showed off his new dark beard as he stepped out in Santa Monica on Thursday with his child Fin.
The Batman star, 52, looked dressed up for the outing, wearing a blue button-down shirt tucked into a pair of black pants.
The actor — who’s currently going through a divorce from his second wife Jennifer Lopez, 55 — completed the look with black dress shoes and a silver watch.
Meanwhile Fin, 15, was pictured sitting on a skateboard and holding a helmet. The teen sported cargo shorts and a black t-shirt.
Affleck also shares daughter Violet, 18, and son Samuel, 12, with ex Jennifer Garner, 52. The pair were married from 2005 until 2018.

Earlier in the day he appeared to be showing the strain of his divorce from Lopez, as he was spotted puffing in a cigarette in his car.
The actor was parked up in Los Angeles and appeared in low spirits as he lit up a cigarette in his $120,000 BMW i7.
Ben was solo as he jumped into his car to head out for the day, as his divorce from wife Jennifer — who will make her first big post-divorce filing appearance this Sunday at the American Music Awards 50th Anniversary Special — rumbles on.
The pair, who reunited in 2021 and tied the knot in August 2022, went their separate ways over the summer after months of speculation.
The singer officially filed for divorce from her partner on the second anniversary of their nuptials having decided to split back in April.
But despite the bitter breakdown of their short-lived marriage, the two have been spotted several times over the last few months.
Last month Ben and JLo reunited to attended their children’s’ back-to-school night in Los Angeles.
Jennifer shares 16-year-old twins Max and Emme with ex-husband Marc Anthony.

Attendees noted that the Hot On The Floor singer and the actor seemed friendly and relaxed as they mingled with other parents and students.
The couple ‘were totally cool with each other and very cordial’ as they made their way around the campus attended by their children.
But, despite their friendly front, an insider told People that a reconciliation is not on the horizon for the A-list couple and that they still plan to divorce.
But as the famous couple navigate their ‘tricky’ divorce with lawyer Laura Wasser, they may have hit an obstacle.
The estranged couple’s $68million former marital home hit a stumbling block last week after the new buyer pulled out of the deal last minute.
The sale of the home would mark an important division in the $550million assets of the exes – who famously wed in 2022 without a prenuptial agreement.
The Maid in Manhattan star’s assets account for $400million of their wealth treasure chest while Ben is reportedly worth an estimated $150million.
As JLo and Ben divide up their assets, a source told People that their ongoing divorce ‘has the potential to get ugly’ since they did not sign a prenuptial agreement.
The source noted that ‘there are some sticking points over financials’ between the couple, who eloped at The Little White Chapel in Las Vegas.

In her divorce filing, Jennifer, who listed their separation date as April 26, 2024, wrote that their assets were ‘unknown.’
According to California state law, only the income and assets they earned during their short-lived marriage are ‘considered community property and subject to division.’
The stars were originally engaged in the early 2000s, but their high profile relationship ended shortly before they were due to get married.
They originally met on the LA set of Martin Brest’s box office bomb Gigli in 2001, but abruptly split just three days before their wedding in 2004.
Both moved on to marry others after their initial breakup, with Jennifer tying the knot with Marc in 2004 and Ben marrying Jennifer in 2005.
However, after the end of both marriages, the two rekindled their romance in 202, exchanging vows in a low-key Las Vegas chapel ceremony in July 2022, before holing a grander celebration at Ben’s estate in Georgia the next month.
