Lopez seemed thrilled with her new concerts in the H๏τ months.
‘To all my international JLovers, I’ll be doing a few select show dates over the summer,’ she wrote in her Instagram caption.
She then added, ‘I can’t wait to get back out there to see all of you. It’s been too long. It’s gonna be an amazing summer #JLoLiveIn2025
‘Stay tuned for more and visit @onthejlo for local venue ticketing information this week @briannalcapozzi @louispalacios.’
She canceled her 2024 summer tour before she filed for divorce from Affleck.
As far as Ben, he has started working on his new films Animals.
It has been reported he has replaced his longtime pal Matt Damon in the upcoming Netflix film, after the 54-year-old stepped down.
Luckily for fans of the iconic duo, insiders confirmed Damon will remain involved behind-the-scenes.
Both he and Affleck are producing the project under their Artists Equity banner, alongside Dani Bernfeld. Meanwhile, the script was penned by Connor McIntyre and Captain Phillips screenwriter Billy Ray.

As to why Damon stepped back from the role — scheduling conflicts seemed to be the culprit. The outlet suggested that his responsibilities in Christopher Nolan’s adaptation of The Odyssey took priority.
Production began in April in Los Angeles, setting the stage for what could be another powerhouse film from the duo behind Good Will Hunting and Air.
While details surrounding Animals’ plot have been largely kept under wraps, the thriller is set to revolving around a kidnapping.
Adding star power to the highly anticipated film, it was announced that X-Files legend Gillian Anderson has joined the cast.
Despite Damon’s departure, fans of the dynamic duo won’t have to wait much longer to see them together again.
The pals are slated to act alongside each other in the forthcoming crime thriller RIP, set to debut on Netflix this summer.
However, the casting change in Animals does not come as a shocking surprise as production had been majorly delayed in September 2024 — when filming was supposed to be complete.
