Shirtless Ben Affleck Puts His MASSIVE Phoenix Tattoo on Display — Is He a Harry Potter Fan?

Ben Affleck is hanging loose for his latest role. Earlier this month, the actor was spotted oceanside in Hawaii as he prepped for his upcoming Netflix movie Triple Frontier alongside his costars Oscar Isaac, Garrett Hedlund, and Charlie Hunnam. In July 2017, Ben dropped out of the film to focus on his health and family, but it seems like he is back on board . . . literally.

Aside from training with lifeguards, the four men shed their shirts as they hopped into the water to go snorkeling, play on underwater scooters, and body board. Of course, all we can really concentrate on in these pictures is Ben's massive back tattoo of a colorful phoenix. Even his ex Jennifer Garner couldn't help but comment about his choice of ink in her 2016 Vanity Fair interview. While the actor previously claimed the tattoo was fake after he was spotted filming Live by Night in 2015, we're not so sure anymore. See more pictures from his shirtless outing ahead.
