His mom is a Hollywood veteran with some very loyal fans.
She got her start over 20 years ago on TV and has starred in romantic comedies that have been massive hits.
Recently, she popped up in Deadpool & Wolverine as she has ties to the production company.
Dad is considered a smart filmmaker and a bankable movie star (he worked with Jennifer Aniston) – and he already has an Oscar under his belt (and he has also made movies with this kid's mom).
There is also a strong link to Jennifer Lopez.
This kid – who has hit red carpets already – was seen with his dad heading to a bookstore in Santa Monica, California on Monday. The day before they were at a Los Angeles Lakers game.
Who is he?
Mom and dad have been in big Hollywood movies; and there is a JLO link; seen on Monday in Santa Monica, California. Who is he?
He is Samuel Affleck, 12.
Mom is Jennifer Garner, dad is Ben Affleck, and his former stepmother is Jennifer Lopez.
His sisters are Violet and Seraphina.
This comes after Affleck said he fears he is 'one errant remark away from being cancelled'.
The 52-year-old actor – who split from his wife Jennifer Lopez earlier this year – made the confession in a joint interview with his pal Matt Damon as they discussed setting up their Artists Equity production company which aims to create fairer pay schemes and Affleck admitted his life as in Hollywood is never certain because he's always at risk of losing everything.
He told Deadline.com: 'We're all subject to this sort of insecurity in this business. Whether we're actors or directors or writers, the phone could stop ringing for us … This is the only thing I can count on, this upfront money. I don't know when this might go away.
'I'm one errant remark away from being cancelled, or I'm one movie bomb away from never working again, and I've got a family and so forth.'

The production company allows artists to invest in the projects they are making so the profits can be split in a more fair way and Affleck admits he wants to end the days of A-list stars making huge money even if the studio makes a loss on their movie and he offered his flop 2003 movie Gigli'as an example.
Affleck explained: 'I've been in movies like Gigli, that's a famous example.
'I got a big cash payday for that.
'Well, it doesn't feel right in retrospect because they [the studio] lost money.

'It wasn't the biggest money-losing movie in history even though it was the most famous bomb in history, perhaps.
' Nonetheless, that doesn't sit right with me. 'But it also doesn't sit right with people when they go, wait a minute, we all sacrificed to be committed to this.
' And then the old story about the $10 million movie that's made $200 million and nobody's seen a nickel.'
