Oscar stars other than Dianne Wiest who have faced financial hardships

Dianne Wiest, the 66-year-old actress who won Oscars for best supporting actress in 1986 ("Hannah and Her Sisters") and in 1994 ("Bullets Over Broadway"), has revealed in a new interview with that she is having trouble paying her rent.

"I have to move out of my apartment soon," Wiest said, adding that work is coming in drips and drabs. In Hollywood she has been offered one type of role, she says, "a nice mom, and that's it. That's all that ever came, except in theatre."

But Wiest isn't the only actor to face financial hardship following Oscar success. Here are four other stars who have had money troubles since their award outing:

Barkhad Abdi

Last year The New Yorker revealed the news that “Captain Phillips” Oscar nominee Barkhad Abdi was actually broke. The Tom Hanks thriller went on to earn $55 million while Abdi was only paid $65,000. While promoting the film, the 29-year-old Somalian actor lived on a per diem and his suits were loaned to him. “Recently Abdi requested that he be allowed to stay at a commuter hotel near LAX to be closer to his friend, a Somali cabdriver from Miinneapolis, who shuttles him around for free,” the New Yorker claimed. Abdi was working at his brother’s phone store in Minneapolis after shooting “Captain Phillips.” But things are looking up for him: Abdi's next two projects are a Judd Apatow film and a thriller starring Helen Mirren.

Brenda Fricker

The 69-year-old "Albert Nobbs" star became the first Irish actress to win an Oscar when she won Best Supporting Actress for "My Left Foot" in 1989. But in a 2012 interview, Fricker admitted she was "completely broke" following the stock market crash. Fricker, who suffers from depression, explained, "I lived off my savings while they lasted, but as long as I have a roof over my head and feed the dog and feed myself, I'm perfectly content."

In 2008, Fricker complained that she wasn't being offered any roles in her home country anymore. "I'm hurt by it because you're sitting here available for work and being asked to travel 5,000 miles around the world to work with good directors and good actors and good scripts," she said. "And yet they're doing good stuff here and nobody even bothers to check your availability."

Burt Reynolds

"Smokey and the Bandit" star Burt Reynolds was nominated for an Oscar in 1997 for Best Supporting Actor for his role in "Boogie Nights." Though he subsequently appeared in the likes of "Without a Paddle" and "The Dukes of Hazzard," Reynolds's Florida home faced foreclosure in 2011. Last year it was sold to a developer.

Gary Busey

Back in 1978, Gary Busey was nominated for an Oscar for his starring turn in "The Buddy Holly Story." But the 70-year-old filed for bankruptcy in 2012, having gone from the big screen -- "Lethal Weapon," "Point Break" -- to various reality shows like "Celebrity Rehab" and "Celebrity Apprentice." With less than $50,000 in his bank account, he faced debts more than ten times that amount.debts.

Nicolas Cage

Nicolas Cage won the Oscar for Best Actor in 1995 for his role as an alcoholic in "Leaving Las Vegas" (he was nominated again 2002 for "Adaptation"). Though the "Ghost Rider" star was once the highest-paid actor in Hollywood, he has had a number of financial problems over the years. In 2009 the IRS claimed Cage owed millions of dollars in unpaid taxes, and his business manager claimed he was living beyond his means. Three of his properties faced foreclosure and in 2011, and Cage sold a bunch of comics to pay his debts.

Wiest's situation is looking comparatively better right about now.
