He would have presented the Best Actress award this year, as is usually the tradition: the previous year’s Best Actor winner presents the following year’s Best Actress.

Casey has faced allegations of sexual assault in the past, and accusations of inappropriate behavior on the set of I’m Still Here have resurfaced in the wake of the #MeToo movement.

Casey Affleck and his girlfriend, Floriana Lima, pose for photos at the 2018 Sean Penn & Friends Haiti Rising Gala on Saturday night (January 6) in Hollywood.

This year, the proceeds of the event went towards the J/P Haitian Relief Organization and a coalition of disaster relief organizations including Lin-Manuel Miranda‘s efforts in Puerto Rico, the Waitt Foundation in Antigua/Barbuda, PCI in Houston, and Americares in Florida.

Almost four million dollars was raised at the event!

The annual event is held every year before the Golden Globes, which are airing tonight on NBC.

Armie Hammer is apologizing to Casey Affleck after he used the Oscar winner as an example of sexual misconduct in Hollywood.

In a recent interview, the 31-year-old Call Me By Your Name star compared the 42-year-old Manchester by the Sea actor’s past sexual assault allegations to Birth of a Nation director Nate Parker‘s own sexual misconduct allegations, before saying Nate faced harsher treatment and backlash than Casey.

“I would like to sincerely apologize to Casey and his family for my recent comments about him in my THR interview,” Armie said statement via The Hollywood Reporter. “Without knowing the facts about the civil lawsuits at issue (which I now understand were settled), I misspoke.”

Ben‘s new movie Justice League is beginning its third weekend in theaters and it has grossed over $180 million so far domestically. It is expected to battle for the number two spot this weekend with surprise hit Wonder.

There has been a lot of speculation about Ben Affleck‘s future as Batman and now the actor’s Oscar-winning brother Casey Affleck is speaking out.

Over the summer, there was a report that Ben might not start in the caped crusader’s upcoming standalone movie The Batman, but then he said the rumors were untrue and he was committed to the role.

“I thought he was an okay Batman,” Casey joked in an interview with WEEI Sports Radio. “No, he was great. He was great. He’s a hero, so he had something to channel and work with there. But he’s not gonna do that movie, I don’t think.”

By “that movie,” Casey is referring to The Batman.

Casey Affleck joined older brother Ben Affleck on his night out with girlfriend Lindsay Shookus at the comedy showcase at iO West comedy club earlier this week!

The 37-year-old SNL producer was there to scout talent, so Ben brought along his younger brother to also come watch.

“She was more in a work role, being a talent scout for SNL, rather than having a romantic date night,” a witness told Us Weekly. “Casey and Lindsay said hello to each other and then Casey and Ben chatted for a while.”

“Ben and Lindsay were very kind to all the staff there, talking with the host, manager and those sitting around them,” the witness continued. “The comedians were definitely excited when they heard Ben was there, but Lindsay was the one they were trying to impress. Ben, Lindsay and Casey were laughing throughout a lot of the performances.”
