Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner finally seem to be in a good place when it comes to handling their separation and their life with their three children.

The Oscar winner appeared on Good Morning America on Thursday to promote his new movie Batman v Superman: The Dawn Of Justice, and naturally the conversation turned to the recent turmoil in his private life.

But the actor and director said he and Jen have focused on what's the most important, explaining: 'We sort of put the kids first. We just take it one step at a time and do our best.'

Back in Gotham: Ben Affleck has been traveling the globe to promote his new film Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice and on Thursday he touched down in Times Square, New York, for an appearance on GMA

Marriage split: The actor and director was asked about he's handling the interest in his personal life following his high profile split from Jennifer Garner, and he said the former couple are taking it 'one step at a time'

Ben and Jen, who wed in 2005, share three children: Violet, 10, Seraphina, seven, and Samuel, four.

Ben praised his estranged wife's devotion to her family, and also to her career. He also gave a shout out to her new movie Miracles Of Heaven that's currently playing in theatres.

'She works very hard, and she's great with the kids and like I say, we put them first,' he said.

Hunk: Ben, 43, looked dapper in a blue suit with matching blue shirt and dark tie and sported some heavy stubble that only added to his chiseled look

The Argo star is back in movie theatres this weekend in the much-hyped superhero showdown movie that's a springboard for a string of DC Comics films from studio Warner Bros.

While the film itself is getting lukewarm reviews, Ben has been generally praised for his turn as a gritty and world-weary Caped Crusader.

He said it was a 'humbling' experience to follow in the lone of actors who have embodied Bruce Wayne, from Michael Keaton to Val Kilmer and George Clooney, and added that he was grateful for the chance to play The Dark Knight.

Big deal: Ben said on GMA that he felt humbled and grateful to have the chance to star as the Caped Crusader on the big screen

Super dad: The role also gave the actor a chance to seriously impress his son Samuel. When the little boy had a superheroes-themed fourth birthday party last month, Ben wore his Batman movie suit. He's pictured with the youngster back in 2013

Holding the fort: While Ben has been on the road promoting his new movie, Jen, pictured Thursday, has remained in Los Angeles with their three children. Ben said they're doing their best and putting their kids first

The role also gave him the chance to seriously impress his son.

When Samuel celebrated his fourth birthday with a superheroes-themed party last month, Ben persuaded the studio to let him borrow his Batman suit.

'The studio brought some of the costumers over and they brought the suit over and I put it on and I wrestled about with the other superheroes and tried not to tear anything,' he said.

'I got a little self conscious when I realized there were grown ups there too,' he added. But it was fun. It was great to see the look on his face. That made everything worthwhile.'
