Ben Affleck braved the stormy weather in Los Angeles on Thursday while out and about with his 11-year-old son, Samuel.
The father-son duo was photographed trying to dodge massive puddles while making their way across the rain-covered streets.
Despite stepping around most of the water, the “Argo” actor eventually walked right into one of the deep puddles, completely drenching his Air Jordan sneakers.
Meanwhile, Samuel seemingly paid no mind to the rainwater as he splashed through soaked streets.
The tween, who pawned off his backpack to his dad, dressed for the weather in a black rain coat and long pants.
Affleck, 51, also bundled up in jeans and lots of layers, including a thick black jacket atop a cozy patterned cardigan.
In typical fashion, the A-list actor completed his school-pickup look with an iced coffee — yet, shockingly, it didn’t appear to be from his beloved Dunkin’.
Affleck shares Samuel, as well as Violet, 18, and Seraphina, 15, with ex-wife Jennifer Garner, whom he was married to until 2018.
Following the pair’s split, the “Good Will Hunting” star rekindled his romance with Jennifer Lopez and the pair said “I do” in 2022.
Meanwhile, Garner has dated CEO John Miller on and off for the last five years.
Despite both moving on from their marriage, Affleck and Garner often come together for the sake of their kids.
In fact, the exes reunited over the weekend at their kids’ school for a musical performance.
Garner was photographed cheerfully chatting with Affleck and Lopez outside the building along with the “Lets Get Loud” singer’s child Emme, 15.
The entire group seemed to be in great spirits as they exited the performance, with Lopez locking arms with Affleck as Garner and Samuel walked slightly ahead of them.
A few days later, the “Air” actor and “13 Going on 30” star were also photographed leaving Samuel’s school together after one of his basketball games.

Insiders told Us Weekly in November that the exes have managed to maintain a “mature” co-parenting relationship by ensuring “the focus” is always on their three children.
Their positive post-divorce dynamic has also been reinforced by their “mutual respect” for each other’s new romances.
The source explained that both Affleck and Miller are “super down-to-earth” and “are always very friendly with one another.”
The outlet also previously reported that Lopez and Garner have “definitely become close and have gotten to know each other much better” over the past two years.
“Both of them are incredible mothers and always put their children’s needs first.”
