Reports indicate that Megan Thee Stallion may have received an offer to star alongside Ben Affleck in an upcoming film. The Safdie brothers, renowned for their work on the acclaimed film Uncut Gems, will direct the movie. The filmmakers are considering Megan for the role of Affleck’s girlfriend in the film, which is set in 1990s New York and centers around the sports memorabilia industry. Affleck portrays a former baseball player who experiences a significant comeback. Additionally, Adam Sandler and Steve Harvey are reported to have roles in the film.
The Safdie brothers earned recognition for their notable film Uncut Gems, which they released in 2019. The film had an incredible ensemble cast that included Adam Sandler, Julia Fox, The Weeknd, LaKeith Stanfield, and Kevin Garnett. The upcoming film, potentially featuring Megan Thee Stallion, will commence filming during the summer. While the release date remains undisclosed, it will exclusively premiere on Netflix.
Meg Is Ready To Start A New Chapter
As Megan moves on to a new chapter of her life, she has contemplated the traumatic experience she endured with Toronto rapper Tory Lanez. Authorities found Lanez guilty of shooting Megan after a party in the summer of 2020. They charged him with three felony counts, and he currently faces a potential sentence of 9 years in jail. Recently, his request for a new trial was denied. When the verdict came on December 23, 2022, it not only vindicated Megan but also represented a triumph for every woman who has faced shame, dismissal, and blame in the aftermath of a violent crime committed against them.
Megan acknowledged that she is in a better place now but still experiences anxiety due to the whole ordeal. People dragged Megan through the mud, but she is ecstatic to have gained a new perspective and to have emerged from the experience with greater strength. “It never crossed my mind that people wouldn’t believe me,” Megan said of the incident. “For years, my attacker tried to leverage social media to take away my power. Imagine how it feels to be called a liar every day?” Stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news on Megan’s possible new role!
