Date night! Ben Affleck heads out for dinner in Los Angeles with his mother Christine

He's rumored to have moved in with girlfriend Lindsay Shookus.

But on Friday night Ben Affleck had dinner with a decidedly different sort of companion: his mother Christine Boldt.

The 45-year-old Gone Girl actor chose a relaxed wardrobe for his night on the town.

On top he opted to ward off the winter chill with a black coat that fell almost all the way to his knees.

He spiced up the demure look with a pair of dashing burgundy trousers.

Some classic brown leather oxfords rounded out his laid-back outfit.

His facial hair appeared to be neatly trimmed, while he styled his hair up with a bit of gel.

It seemed as though his eyes may have been a tad bigger than his stomach at dinner, as he carried a sizable to-go bag in his right hand.

Ben's mother Christine opted to go even more casual with her evening ensemble.

She layered a grey graphic tee under a leather jacket, which she paired with some black trousers and sandals.

While he no doubt had a ball with his mom, it seems Ben has taken a real shine to his current squeeze, SNL producer Lindsay Shookus.

Friday's outing came after it was reported that Ben and girlfriend Lindsay Shookus are now sharing an apartment together in New York.

The Justice League actor is renting a luxury apartment in New York's Upper West Side, which will be his base when he's in the city.

The Saturday Night Live producer moved in around a month ago, sources told People magazine.

The 2,761 sq ft property boasts three bedrooms, stunning views of both the Hudson River and Central Park, round-the-clock butler service, a pool and a private movie theatre, with leases on the building averaging around $28,000 a month.
