The “Gone Girl” actor enjoyed a low-key day with his teenage daughter in a rare sighting that quickly caught fans' attention.

Ben, 52, kept his look simple yet stylish. He wore a beige overcoat over a cream-colored sweater, paired with matching pants and dark sunglasses. His well-groomed beard and slicked-back hair complemented his clean-cut appearance.
Seraphina, 16, opted for a laid-back and expressive style. She wore an oversized Bob Marley graphic t-shirt layered under a navy and white jacket.
