It's being reported that Hillary Clinton has raised over $46 million for her presidential campaign by calling on the likes of a few big-time Hollywood hitters. Actors such as Ben Affleck, Leonardo DiCaprio, Reese Witherspoon, Tobey Maguire, and many more, apparently support Clinton and have decided to contribute to her run.

Variety notes that the high number comes from the Clinton campaign's first finance report at the Federal Election Commission.

Clinton's Hollywood donors don't stop at the quartet listed above, of course. The former Secretary of State has a lengthy list of entertainment-based contributors, spreading the likes of high-ranking employees from the companies such as Comcast, Newsweb Corp., CAA, HBO, and many more, and noted celebrities like Dakota Fanning, Magic Johnson and Hustler mogul Larry Flynt, to name a few.

Check out how the other candidates in the race are measuring up to the once-upon-a-time First Lady's $46 million-plus at Variety.

One of Clinton's aforementioned donors, actor Ben Affleck, has recently been in the news for other reasons. It was officially announced that he and longtime wife Jennifer Garner are getting a divorce.

Moreover, Affleck stars in the upcoming Batman v. Superman as the former. The film is set to be released in 2016 and has recently released the first official trailer:

And yes, he can also (kind of) be seen in the new trailer for Suicide Squad.
