In Peppermint, Jen stars as a widow who wreaks revenge on the men who killed her family and the corrupt cops and judges who let them walk free.

She’s promoting it as a female driven action movie and she definitely packs a punch if the trailer is anything to go by.

The film is directed by French director Pierre Morel who made the action thrillers Taken, From Paris With Love and The Gunman.

Garner’s stunt double Shauna Duggins, who took some of the heavy lifting for the star, arrived in a stylish yet casual ensemble.

She paired a long-sleeved silky black blouse with wide-legged trousers that had vertical white stripes down the sides. 

Actress Erin Carufel, who plays a doctor in Peppermint, walked the red carpet in a salmon pink figure-hugging gown with a large ruffle on one shoulder.

The sleeveless number perfectly showcased her baby bump as she posed with actor Scott Connors.

Peppermint opens in theatres on September 7.

It will no doubt confirm Garner’s status as one of Hollywood’s top female stars.

She was married to Affleck for a decade before their decision in the summer of 2015 to call it quits.

Their divorce has just been finalized and they continue to share joint custody of their children – Violet, 12, Seraphina, nine, and Samuel, six.

She has stood by her ex since their split and supported him in his struggles with addiction.

Affleck is currently in a residential treatment facility in Malibu.

He first sought treatment for alcohol addiction in 2001 and in March, 2017, he revealed he had completed a second residential stay at a rehab center.
