A chipper Ben Affleck went to a business meeting at his Santa Monica office on Friday, and the actor was clutching an e-cigarette in his hand. We suppose that's better than the real thing! As you know, Ben is a not-so-secret smoker, so it now seems like he's actively trying to quit. Hmm, wonder why he wasn't doing this while he was still with estranged wife Jennifer Garner?! We all know she hated his filthy smoking habit!

While critics haven't been loving his new movie, Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, it should be noted that the film's worldwide weekend gross, which was a staggering $420 million, was the fourth-biggest global opening of all time. Aha! That might explain the smile on his face -- not only is he making bank for the flick, but it's the perfect way for him to thumb his nose at all the bad reviews.

Anyway, Ben is also set to appear as a stand-alone character in an untitled Batman reboot, which he will direct and star in, and he will also appear in Suicide Squad, and the first two parts of The Justice League. His marriage may be in shambles, but his career is looking pretty damn good these days!
