Jennifer Garner stopped by "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" on Thursday, September 27, and explained to the talk show host what it was like raising her new son Samuel and life with her husband Ben Affleck.

Garner gave birth to the couple's only son on February 27. Affleck and Garner, who have been married since 2005, also have two daughters, 6-year-old Violet and 3-year-old Seraphina.

Cameron "CJ" Adams made his jump to starring role in the new Disney film "The Odd Life of Timothy Green," but he feels less like a movie star than a "kid who got lucky."

"[I feel like] a kid who got lucky because now that I'm in this whole movie business, I feel more good but, like, I'm not going to go around, you know, bragging that I'm in a movie," Adams told OnTheRedCarpet.com during an August 10 interview. "It's all about luck because there's thousands of people out there trying out and you just have to do it right."

Jennifer Garner said that her experience with her own children helped her with her role in "The Odd Life of Timothy Green."

"I don't have problems with fertility, clearly, but I can really imagine what it's like for my friends who are going through it and just try to respectfully play what they've gone through," Garner told OnTheRedCarpet.com during an August 10 interview. "That being said, it was helpful to have been a mom a couple of times over when I made this movie."

Joel Edgerton is best known for his role in adventure films like "Warrior" and "The Thing," but he was happy to put aside the thrills for his role in "The Odd Life of Timothy Green."

"There are so many movies out there that are 'cool' and 'cool' is often violence and car chase," Edgerton told OnTheRedCarpet.com during an August 10 interview. "It was really nice, actually, to be part of something that wasn't trying to be anything but open-hearted."

'The Odd Life of Timothy Green' is a magical story about a happily married couple, Cindy and Jim Green (Jennifer Garner and Joel Edgerton), who can't wait to start a family but can only dream about what their child would be like. The Disney film hits theaters on August 15, 2012.
