“You’ll be afraid it’s going to be crap until it happens,” the Gone Girl the star assures his wife, while making her smile with a surprised face. “You have to distinguish between things that are bad in terms of DNA and things that just don’t work right.”

Lopez interjects that she doesn’t think “DNA” is “bullshit” per se, to which the two-time Oscar winner comforts her by saying, “Well, that’s all you need.”

“It’s just crap right now,” she declares.

Affleck tells her once again that it’s not “bullshit.”

“It’s wrong. It’s just inexperience, not having done this process before,” he tells the two-time Grammy-nominated musician.

Lopez then teases Affleck as she throws her arms around his neck.

“I’m sorry I’m not an award-winning director. I’m sorry. I’m sorry I wasn’t doing all the things at 21,” she says, as her husband interrupts her: “Well, if I was doing a music concert, if I was doing a rock show, I’d say you: ‘Tell me how this is going. Do you usually get scared before a performance?'”
