I think Jennifer Aniston lucked out this time. She currently shooting Garry Marshall’s Mother’s Day in Atlanta, and these are some photos from the set yesterday. You know why she’s lucky this time? Because she got to shoot some scenes with Timothy Olyphant. Damn, bruh. He looks really good in these photos too (apologies to Bedhead for jacking these!). Apparently, Olyphant is playing the ex-husband to Jennifer Aniston’s character. He’s remarried to someone younger, and the younger woman is out-mothering Aniston’s character’s children. These photos apparently show Aniston looking worried/concerned and Olyphant looking like a sex god. Who needs plot, really? Just put Olyphant in a nice shirt and have him saunter around for a few hours. I’d watch that.
Because I’m obsessed with reading about food, I ended up reading this story in People Magazine about how Jennifer recently had a girls’ night in Atlanta:
Girls night! Newlywed Jennifer Aniston is back to work — but that doesn’t mean she can’t indulge in a little down time with friends. The actress, who is in Atlanta shooting her upcoming film Mother’s Day, popped into the city’s Ecco restaurant with a group of female pals on Saturday. The group was “very casual and relaxed,” a source tells PEOPLE. “The table ordered a few wood-fired pizzas and a couple of pasta dishes, which they all shared. [And they enjoyed] lots of laughs.”
Located in Atlanta’s midtown neighborhood, the hotspot is known for their Mediterranean and Italian dishes such as house made mozzarella and basil pizza and spaghetti with arugula, mascarpone, black pepper and pecorino.
The source adds, Aniston “sat in full view of the restaurant [and] asked for no special service or privacy.”
The outing marked off a joy-filled month for Aniston, who wed Justin Theroux in early August (Theroux is also hard at work, having returned to the set of HBO’s The Leftovers following the couple’s idyllic honeymoon in Bora Bora).
The food sounds good, I would have probably gotten a pasta dish with no cheese. I enjoy the fact that Aniston is comfortable enough in her life these days that she’s totally fine with carbs. Good for her.
It feels like Justin has been filming in Texas rather endlessly, right? He’s been in Texas, on and off, for most of this year. From what I’ve seen – and I follow Aniston gossip somewhat closely – Aniston really hasn’t made that many trips to Texas to see Justin while he works, just as it doesn’t seem like Justin will make the journey to Atlanta to see Aniston. Hm. Granted, they don’t have to be joined at the hip, but they ARE newlyweds, you know? It’s a little weird.
I hope Bedhead doesn’t shank me for this photo:

I miss Raylan. More of him less of Aniston,please.
Gimme Timothy in Raylan’s jeans. Puh-leeze.
Yup, that would make my morning!
But with the Hat too.
and no shirt!!
Drewl…..loving the haircut also.
WHY isn’t TO a bigger star?
He’s absolutely stunning and charming on talk shows. Witty and so much fun to look at, but down to earth.
And he’s not one of those cute miniatures — he’s normal size. Looks huge the way that photo is shot.
+1,000,000,000
He’s prettier than Aniston.
How do people know how often someone flies back to see their partner while off on location? Matt Damon used to fly home every weekend from set and it’s not like there are photos to prove it, just his comment.
to add to what you wrote, even if they aren’t seeing each other every weekend, I don’t find it incredibly strange. they’re both over 40, one’s been married before, they’ve been together 3 years…
…they’re not early-20’s gaga-for-each-other never-lived-together-before couples. if they’re comfortable with each other, and secure in their commitment, I don’t see why they have to be together 24/7. or even every weekend. maybe they skype, even…
They’ve been bicoastal from the start though, correct? I think they believe being apart suits them. Lol I get asexual vibes from both(esp her)..and I think he’s of the same ilk…so I don’t think they mind not being together. Strange couple.
Whoa! Your cynicism about love is sad. I hope you’re not young. I can tell you that the excitement of love – and I do mean real mature love – is just as exciting when you are older and maybe more so. The desire to be with the other person is just as intense and present. Now I wouldn’t do anything stupid but I would sure be spending as much time as possible with that person and moving mountains to get there. Getting your priorities straight is a happy consequence of age. Making your partner a priority – especially once your career is successful and in place – is one of those smart priorities.
I thought the paps keep tabs on Jennifer and now Justin. I think any sightings of her or even him at an airport even for general aviation would filter out.
Yes, what a sad description of over 40 marrieds. It’s still a hellava lot of fun and while I’m comfortable being alone, I chose not to be because I find daily relationship very fulfilling.
What ever Jen and are Justin are doing seems to be fine for them, but I’m not going to go the distance of trying to normalize something that is unusual by saying eveyone else is living the life of a spayed dog.
I, too, get an asexual vibe from Aniston, and her hubby, too. As long as Aniston has access to women, she’s A-OK, and who knows what her hubby is into.
Aniston uses sex with men to get what she wants, at least she did when she was young, now, no one is interested.
Seems as if Timothy is less than impressed with Aniston.
uh…this is not “sad” or “cynicism”. just different.
what works for some doesn’t work for others. yes, I’m in my 40s and have been with the BF for over 20 years. we were gaga-silly-in love as 20-somethings, and we’re still in love, but it changes as you get older. it’s not necessarily the kind of butterflies you get at 20, but there is real, deep love and commitment there. yeah, I get happy and excited to see him, but it’s just not the same kind of “excitement” that you have early in a relationship. it’s more of a “comfortable” excitement, if that makes sense.
“What ever Jen and are Justin are doing seems to be fine for them, but I’m not going to go the distance of trying to normalize something that is unusual”
right…FINE FOR THEM. and again, what is “normal”? what’s normal for some is not for others. normal is relative. what’s “normal” for a young child living in a village in South America is NOT “normal” to a child living in Manhattan. you don’t get to define what is “normal” for everyone.
Here for doofus. Same age, same kind of relationship, same outlook and frankly I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I <3 you mimi.
we should double date.
I’m not attempting to define for everyone what normal is. I think it is observable that married couples in western society live and spend time together. Please don’t suggest that I’m trying to make an oppressive prescription when I’m just reflecting what is a commonly accepted and expressed.
Let me repeat that I think that Jen and Justin are happy in their way (which I don’t pretend to have the details of) and so are you.
actually, Original G, by saying that you aren’t going to try to “normalize” it, there is a direct implication that you think it’s not normal…which means you ARE defining what is normal for someone else.
yes, absolutely, SOME married couples in western society live and spend time together. and that used to be the norm, or “normal”…what else used to be “normal”? people staying in marriages that were toxic or had died…people getting married BEFORE having kids together…marriage being only between a man and woman…
what is “normal”, or “commonly accepted” changes with time. I agree that they seem happy, this is the way they found that works for them and, therefore, it’s THEIR “normal”.
Doofus, “SOME married couples in western society live and spend time together”
Really? ‘Some’? I think you mean 99.947999999%! Most married couples live together and spend some time together. I have no idea what in this galaxy or earth you are trying to say.
Yet, another couple, who shall not be named, have been together over a decade, have a stable relationship, are married, yet, if they are apart more than a few days or even a week, “some” start the “it’s over”, nonsense.
Of course the couple I’m talking about ARE madly in love, have been from the beginning, and didn’t marry for publicity.
True, and even if that isn’t the case, the evidence would suggest – as have a number of articles written about them – that they ‘thrive” on their time apart. I believe that’s the phrase the ‘People’ article used; they thrive on their time away from each other. Maybe if they were together more often, they wouldn’t get along so well? Or maybe in this case, absence really does make the heart grow fonder?
But what thrive does even mean to an outside observer? Are they more social when separate or something?
I really don’t know -it’s not my opinion of them, I’m just repeating what was written. That’s how the source for the People magazine article described them – they thrive when they’re apart.
Yeah, I always think it’s difficult to judge what people do all the time when they aren’t photographed on a daily basis. Most celebrities can go days, weeks, or even months without being spotted, so who knows what they’re doing in the meantime.
Also, Olyphant. LOVE.
I so agree to all comments above. I also need time apart from my partner regularly. If I see him every day, I get stabby. Whatever floats your boat, I guess. 😛
hahahaha…I know what you mean. I DO like to see the bf every day, but I am happy when he goes home as I need my “ME” time.
Well Jen has been seen in LA throughout the summer, without sightings in Texas, so put 2 & 2 together!
Also, People mag made a big point about how they try to see each other when they can, but thrive on being apart. Very romantic….not. They probably have lasted so long because Justin has not been around her enough to see what made all the other men leave….
Is Justin supposed to be pretty “method” in his acting? Maybe he just likes his space while shooting so that he can focus on his work?
Sure Carol, sure…..
Excuses, excuses. Seems they just do not like being around each other much.
Can’t vacation alone, & can’t even go on their honeymoon without Jen’s entourage.
@carol, the gigolo isn’t a good enough an actor to be “method”.
Jayna — But the difference between Matt Damon and Aniston is that Damon is rarely papped. He can move around effortlessly without anyone caring really. Aniston has her publicist on speed dial. So when JustJen are together, the world will know about it. They’ll be photos in all the tabloids and blogs.
Damn. I remember watching GO! and thinking he was the hottest- time has served this man WELL. Damn.
Timothy in Go! Is so underrated his chemistry with Katie Holmes was off the charts. Always remember him saying he had a crush on Katie. I wonder what his wife(still to this day) thought about that.
Go! is a good movie, and Timothy is great in it. This reminds me, must watch Justified.
Hmmm, Timothy….
Tastier than a slice of pizza.
^ This!
all her movies tank. I don’t get why she is always being offered roles. she’s a boring actress.
She gets offered roles because producers, and bigwigs in the industry see her face plastered all over the tabloids month after month, and assume she’s still as popular as she was 10 years ago. This is the motivation for Huvane keeping her front and center all the time. Whether this will continue now that she’s married, and the “poor Jen” era is (hopefully!) over, I really don’t know. When she’s no longer the go to girl for In Touch and Star, you’ll see her fade into the sunset. Go flip houses Jen, that’s your true calling!
Um yes, so so lucky. Love him.
Shd looks very unattractive. Is that what they were going for?
I thought she looked her age. She is playing a mom, so maybe she’s supposed to look like a regular person and not a super fit person with a face full of botox and fillers. She doesn’t look unattractive so much as normal.
Aniston looks like the average 50 year old woman you see every day of the week, no worse, no better.
lola–that would be fine, except she’s 46 LOL!
Probably. She’s apparently playing a frazzled, frumpy, divorced single working mom whose kids prefer spending time with their new fun, gorgeous, hip, younger stepmom, played by Shay Mitchell. Happy Mother’s Day! indeed. lol
I don’t care about Anniston but the pictures of Timothy Olyphant are everything. I miss Justified.
I gained 30 pounds during the year I lived in Atlanta. Too many amazing restaurants. Does anyone remember the show Deadwood? TO was so freaking hot on that show!
I preferred Ian McShane and Robin Weigert but he was good as well.
I loved In MacShane as well. John Hawkes was another favorite. I have a thing for men with late 19th Century era facial hair.
He has aged since Deadwood, but, he still looks good.
Loved Tim in Deadwood. I never made it pass the first season because of the profanity and other unsavory content.
Tim O would be great in a Tombstone remake as Doc Holiday, even though Val Kilmer was the best at portraying him.
I love love love Tim Olyphant and I loved Deadwood. Just about every actor on that show was amazing. I actually thought Olyphant was not as great as the others, but he has since proven himself. Rumor has it that a Deadwood HBO movie may be coming … 🙂
I heard the same. Can’t wait.
I hope so, as it seemed to end abruptly, with several loose ends.
I love him!!!He is way too good for this movie.
This film is a flop, and it just started filming. I hate that for TO.
What happened to all the projects JA was so sure was going to be offered to her. Guess HW wasn’t any more impressed with her “Oscar snubbed” role than the rest of the movie going world.
Poor TO. But lucky JA.
He is so hot. I can’t look too much. It starts to burn after a while.
I know, I kept having to glance at him out of the corner of my eye, before murmuring “hot damn” and clicking page back. He should come with some kind of protective eyewear, like a solar eclipse.
He’s so sexy I can’t take it. I love the horror movie “Crazies” just because he’s the lead and he’s SUPER hot in it (I’d highly recommend it if you like him and zombies!)
Totally underrated movie! So fun and scary!
…no comments about how old dude looks?
She looks terrible and worn out…I thought it was a still from that cake movie…i guess thats just her face. Wonder if she’s comfortable in her skin now enough to stop shaming her more beautiful ‘friends’ about their tweaks?
I think this is just how Jen looks with only a minimum of makeup. However, she’s had more than her own share of tweaks! I think all the years of sun worshipping have caught up with her. A woman can look gorgeous at 46, but she can’t look 20.
I have heard that she has said she does know people who tweak too much and since she is friends with Courney Cox I kind of agree. But if she has been shaming people she should not. But I do not think there is anything wrong with how she looks.
Aniston’s face is just not attractive. Her nose jobs did not do anything beneficial! Her features are too harsh & not femanine at all.
I agree she’s not attractive and never has been. BUT she can look interesting and that can be a real draw if you combine it with other interesting qualities. I honestly think her looks served her better as an actress before she had all that plastic surgery to try to homogenize her and, in essence, de-Greek her and try to make her some blonde surfer girl. I think it’s possible she might have had more interesting roles if she had recognized them.
She has done herself no favors with the tanning over the years, too.
I’m a LOT older than she is and my skin looks better, and I haven’t had any surgery or Botox.
That last pic of Jen, not a good face. Shows the magic of Photoshop & good lighting.
The ears, no lips, & that nose, why does the media act like she is gorgeous when she is looking like Dustin Hoffman mixed with Iggy Pop?
I think, when it comes to Timothy Olyphant, we are all lucky.
Yes, God has truly blessed us.
I agree with the posters above, Olyphant is so incredibly hot it hurts to look at him.
From his 20s through his 40s, consistently, no man wears a pair of jeans like Timothy. Damn.
He’s looking even hotter to me w/SnP hair (that’s my thing now).
Timothy Olyphant is a hottie! I’ve been crushing on him since the film “Go” from the late 90s. I wanted to be Katie Holmes in that movie so badly cause she got to make out with him…so lucky… 😀
Raylan . . . come back. (but keep this haircut please)
Aw honey, I hope you can fly to Texas or LA or something before this weekend, ’cause it’s gonna be CRAZY IN ATLANTA. We’ve got college football, Black Gay Pride, and DRAGONCON (where I’ll be). At least the NASCAR schedule was rearranged and the “rebuilding” Braves are in DC or nobody would be getting anywhere! Or, put on your slave Leia costume from Friends and come join us!
You are absolutely correct Kaiser. Not everyone needs to be attached at the hip 24/7 to have a meaningful and solid relationship. Different strokes for different folks, right? As far as it being “weird” I wouldn’t feel to bad for them. They both seem to be doing great.
I think she mostly files private and she doesn’t call the paps to meet her a the airport. Also, there was a tweet from someone in Austin who said she lost her parking spot to Aniston, so she has been there. Also articles about her and Justin and Bateman hanging with Sandra Bullock in Austin.
People can lie in tweets you know. Articles about her being there for a single weekend are the only ones I have seen.
Seems like Aniston is damned if she does and damned if she doesn’t. She doesn’t fly to Texas to meet up with him enough to satisfy the public and she’s deemed “asexual” or not really into him, but we all know if she flew to Texas every week or even every other week, she would be labeled “clingy” or needy or insecure. My guess is, they are used to this lifestyle and it doesn’t bother them or not enough to change it because what would that mean? Neither one wants to give up their career and both their career’s require travel and long times apart. I’m glad Jennifer isn’t jetting down to Texas on a constant basis. He’s working and she’s working where she’s working. They probably don’t have to time to be unhappy about the arrangement.
All I have to say is Timothy Olyphant gets finer with age.
Absolutely. Like a good bourbon.
Jen is not aging well at all. Her cheeks just look weird. That’s all I got.
Her fillers look awful. Didn’t she throw C.C. under the bus at one point for having so many procedures done?
Jen, just go for the lifestyle minilift. Forget fillers and other new fangled procedures. Get them later for maintenance.
