Maybe just go into another room?' But he knew exactly what he wanted."Jennifer also revealed she dislikes working with her husband Ben Affleck - who she starred alongside in 2001's 'Pearl Harbor' and 2003's 'Daredevil', both of which before they began dating - and has vowed never to appear on screen with him again.She said: "No, no, no. It doesn't work. It would just feel so incredibly weird. I couldn't do a scene with him for all the tea in China."
