Ben Affleck Drops Out of Netflix Movie Project
by EG
Over and out. Ben Affleck has dropped out of his Netflix movie Triple Frontier to focus on his wellness and family, according to Deadline.
The film, which is currently casting, will press on without the Argo director, 44, reports the site. The Oscar-winner has yet to comment on the news.
Tom Hardy and Channing Tatum were originally cast in Triple Frontier, but ultimately dropped out due to scheduling conflicts. Mahershala Ali and Adria Arjona will star in the action-adventure flick, which is set to release in 2019.
The report comes on the heels of the Gone Girl actor’s recently unveiled relationship with Saturday Night Live producer Lindsay Shookus. Several sources confirmed to Us Weekly that Affleck’s romance with Shookus, 37, began amid his marriage with Jennifer Garner (The A-list couple split in June 2015).
