Spring Breakers adds Pretty Little Liars star Ashley Benson


While Spring Breakers is still looking for a fourth female lead, it just got one step closer by casting TV star Ashley Benson...
News recently broke that rising star Emma Roberts had decided to fade away gracefully from Harmony Korine's Spring Breakers, and it seems they've wasted little time replacing her. Ashley Benson, known best for her role on teen mystery show (or Veronica Mars v.2) Pretty Little Liars, has just joined the cast.
It seems as if Korine is going mainstream, as Spring Breakers still retains one of the most wholesome casts of the moment. Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens are already set to star opposite James Franco, who will play the drug and arms dealer after the four college girls at the story's centre.
One more girl remains to be cast, but Benson will probably turn out to be a smart investment. Though not as well known as the other two actresses, she can definitely hold her own in the acting stakes.
