However, the pairs evening out has fuelled speculation Ben has split from his girlfriend Lindsay Shookus.
The Batman actor, who turned 46 on Wednesday (15 August), was pictured leaving Nobu Malibu with Shauna Sexton, best known as Playboys Miss May 2018.
Ben dressed casually for the occasion wearing a pair of jeans, a green jumper which had a stain and a dark blue jacket. At one point, the Oscar-winning actor was seen holding a cigarette in his hand.
His companion, however, made more of an effort with Shauna dressed up in a nude-coloured bodycon dress and a pair of sandal heels.
Shauna, 22, hails from Virginia but lives in Los Angeles and describes herself on Instagram as a Vet Tech.
