Kate Beckinsale explained Ben Affleck's Pearl Harbor teeth.
, explained that he wasn't the only person on set to get flack for their appearance. Beckinsale said that after she was cast, Michael Bay asked her to "work out." She'd encountered body-shaming before on set, but she said that Affleck had a story of his own that involved his teeth.

"Ben [Affleck], who’d already done a movie with the director, was like, 'This happened to me. They made me get new teeth,'" Beckinsale said. "And I was like, 'Cool, at least I get to hang on to my actual teeth.'", too. She explained that she never thought she fit into the roles that he'd offered women.

Beckinsale continued, saying that Bay would bring up her appearance again and again. It's a mindset she's moved on from, she told "When he was asked about me, he'd say, 'Kate wasn't so attractive that she would alienate the female audience,'" she said during her time on Advertisement
