11 People Who Got Paid Insane Money For NOT Making A Movie

8. Hilary Duff - The Story Of Bonnie & Clyde

When people think of Bonnie & Clyde they conjure up imagines of Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway, who came to define the cultural image of the outlaw couple despite looking nothing like them. Faye Dunaway could have had some fierce competition if a planned movie called The Story Of Bonnie & Clyde had come together, because acting powerhouse Hilary Duff would have taken on the role and redefined it for a new generation. Instead, Duff was ceremoniously dumped from the movie in 2011 when producer€™s learned she was pregnant and weren€™t willing to wait a year for her to do the movie. She was bought out of her contract for $100,000 and while producers tried to put a friendly face on it, Duff would later dismiss the production and the people behind it. To date this version of the story still hasn€™t been made, so Faye Dunaway can sleep soundly for now.
