D'Arcy Carden Shares What It's Like Working With Jennifer Garner

Jennifer Garner Details "Upheaval" Her Family Experienced After Ben Affleck Divorce

D'Arcy Carden has found a good place with Jennifer Garner.

In fact, the 46-year-old gained a new perspective on Garner after the two filmed The Five-Star Weekend, their upcoming Peacock series based on the 2023 Elin Hilderbrand novel of the same name.

"As good as you think she is, she’s actually better," Carden said of her costar in an exclusive interview with E! News at the 2026 Las Culturistas Culture Awards, airing on June 17. "She’s real. She’s who she is. What you see is what you get."

She continued, "I would come home from working, and I’d sit on the bed talking to my husband and be like, ‘I’m in love with Jen Garner.’"

Carden added that she and castmates Chloë Sevigny, Regina Hall and Gemma Chan had the "best" time with Garner, who plays a food blogger hosting her four friends for a weekend in Nantucket after her husband's tragic death.

"On one hand, I'm like, 'Yes, I would do anything,'" she explained. "But there's also a part of me that's letting this this thing be."

For now, Carden is looking forward to a summer at home.

"We renovated our house, which took a really long time," shared the actress, who's been married to husband Jason Carden since 2010. "So, I’m not gonna to leave my house—in a good way. I’m just gonna nest the hell out of my house, and invite people over and make dinner."

Maybe she'll invite Garner?
