Ben Affleck Net Worth On Rise; Considering Lindsay Lohan for Role in New Movie?
With a new movie, "Live By Night," underway Ben Affleck's net worth is about to skyrocket. Could that increased net worth give Affleck, the comfort and room to take a risk on hiring Lindsay Lohan, fresh out of rehab?
Though Lindsay Lohan is currently listed on the IMDB.com page as an actress in the movie, it appears that her involvement in "Live By Night" is just a rumor and will not actually happen.
Despite rumors that Lohan was slated to be the female lead of "Live By Night," it appears that not even an extremely high level wealth is enough to make directors want to hire Lohan. At least that seems to be the case for Affleck who is currently, along with his wife Jennifer Garner, worth $100 million.
"First off, no one has been cast. [Lohan] will not be cast in any role in the movie. She is not being considered for any role in the movie. She won't be in the movie," a source told Us Magazine.
Lindsay Lohan left rehab on Tuesday, July 30.
Worth $75 million on his own, and $25 million more with actress wife Jennifer Garner, the celebrity couple, who have one son, are the 16th richest couple in the world. Another successful movie for Affleck can only boost those numbers. But apparently Affleck's wealth doesn't mean he's going to make any risky decisions, as it appears he will not take a risk on Lindsay Lohan.
"Live By Night" is based on a crime novel by Dennis Lehane and is set to hit theaters in 2014.
