The last time we left Ben Affleck and Liv Tyler, they were blasting off for romance in Armageddon. Now, twenty-three movies later (16 by him, 7 by her) the love birds are re-uniting, sort of.

It was announced this week that Tyler will be joining Kevin Smith's latest picture Jersey Girl, which happens to star Affleck and another of his recent leading ladies Jennifer Lopez (in next year's Gigli).

Tyler will play Maya, a video store clerk who has an important impact on Affleck's life as he adjusts to life with a new wife (Lopez) and six year old daughter. Jersey Girl will film in Philly (don't ask) later this Summer with a late 2003 release planned.
