Jennifer Garner Seduced by Co-Star
Jennifer Garner is set to be seduced by Ricky Gervais. The 'Alias' beauty will play the British comic's love interest in new film 'This Side of Truth', in which Gervais plays a man who discovers how to lie in a world where people only know how to be honest.

A source close to the actor - who played the hapless David Brent in hit sitcom 'The Office' - said: "Filming begins in the spring and it's obviously going to be quite a departure for Ricky. Not many of us thought we'd ever see the man behind David Brent getting romantic with someone like Jennifer!"

Meanwhile, Garner has revealed she has banned her daughter from becoming an actress. The '13 Going on 30' star insists she and her actor husband Ben Affleck have no desire to see their 23-month-old daughter Violet follow in their Hollywood footsteps. Garner recently said: "She is unaware of what we both do for a living, but if she wanted to be an actress we would both just kabosh it."
