Joaquin Phoenix ‘I Haven’t Spoken To Casey Affleck In 3 Or 4 Years’

HOLLYWOOD, CA. (THECOUNT) — Joker star, Joaquin Phoenix, revealed in a recent interview with Vanity Fair that he hasn’t spoken to his longtime best friend and ex brother-in-law, Casey Affleck “in many years.”

Affleck was married to Joaquin’s sister, Summer Phoenix, but the couple has since divorced. But the relationship may have had repercussions on their friendship he told the publication. Or maybe it had something to do with that fake documentary.

“My sister and him divorced. And I haven’t spoken directly to him or indirectly in a long time. Three or four years,” reports PerezHilton on Saturday.

The two first met in 1995 on the set of To Die For, previously lived in the same apartment building in NYC, and even have matching tattoos they got together in Italy. To top it off, the 44-year-old is father to two children with Joaquin’s younger sister, whom he was married to from 2006 to 2017.

The then the pair collaborated on the mockumentary film I’m Still Here together in 2010, which was followed by two sexual harassment lawsuits filed against Ben Affleck brother by two women who worked with him on set.

The Manchester by the Sea actor has denied the allegations against him, and later settled the suits out of court. He and the accusers are barred from discussing any details about the case. Similarly, Phoenix did not discuss the allegations with VF, but said he did not witness sexual misconduct himself.
