The boss of IMAX has allegedly been partying so hard, his ex-wife cannot get a $4.5 million life insurance policy on him.

Richard Gelfond, who has helmed the larger-than-life, $1.57 billion movie theater company since 2009, has used cocaine and engaged in “excessive” drinking — causing one insurance company to reject him for a policy, first wife Linda Stein claimed in a lawsuit.

At least two other insurance companies also refused to move forward with a policy for Gelfond, 70, according to Stein, who filed the now-sealed Manhattan Supreme Court papers last week.
