Jen is here for "Miracles from Heaven," based on the book 'Three Miracles From Heaven" by Christy Beam. Plot:  "A young girl suffering from a rare digestive disorder finds herself miraculously cured after surviving a terrible accident." (imdb).

The movie also stars Martin Henderson, Hannah Alligood and Courtney Fansler. Author and evangelist T.D. Jakes is one of the producers.

Jen previously filmed "The Odd Life of Timothy Green" in Atlanta. 

Meanwhile Ben's in town for "Live By Night," with  Zoe Saldana, Sienna Miller and Elle Fanning. Plot: "A story set in the Prohibition Era and centered around a group of individuals and their dealings in the world of organized crime." (imdb).

Ben was here last filming "The Accountant."

The soon-to-be exes are both in Atlanta now. Not awkward. At all.
