“He was the one who had control, pretty much,” a source stated, adding that Affleck was the force behind the project, even though the documentary portrays him as reluctant or surprised by it. This, according to insiders, is not the case.
Another source said the idea for the documentary came from Affleck through his company, Artist Equity. Lopez’s team was reportedly not in favor of the documentary, preferring to focus on her album and an Amazon original video project.
Despite his apparent hesitance on screen, Affleck was fully aware of every step Lopez took in making the movie and the album. “He knew every step of the way what she was doing,” the source said.
