His Star Is Fast on the Rise, but Casey Affleck’s Growing Fame Has Led to a New Focus on Shocking Allegations That He Sexually Harassed Two Women.
IT’S taken a few years, but Casey Affleck has finally emerged from the shadow of his big brother, Ben Affleck. While Ben has been a huge star since he broke through with 1997’s Good Will Hunting, which he cowrote and costarred in with his buddy Matt Damon, Casey has been slowly gaining ground on his Oscar-winning sibling, garnering raves for his roles in the 2007’s Gone Baby Gone and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, for which he nabbed an Academy Award nomination.
Now, with his stunning performance in the intense new drama Manchester by the Sea, Casey, 41, is on the cusp of superstardom. But with that new level of acclaim has come a brighter spotlight — and it’s resulted in critics revisiting a dark chapter from his past that seemed to have been swept under the carpet.
