Rebel's wrath
Hollywood is buzzing with the latest drama unfolding around Rebel Wilson and the producers of her movie, 'The Deb.' In a bold move, Wilson is hitting back with a countersuit that reads like a thriller script, filled with accusations of sexual harassment, embezzlement, and intimidation.
Wilson's lawsuit paints a disturbing picture of the working environment on the set of 'The Deb.' The document alleges Amanda Ghost engaged in sexual harassment towards the film's lead actress, Charlotte MacInnes, including forcing her to share a penthouse and making overtly sexual remarks. But that's not all - the suit accuses the producing trio of pocketing a whopping AU $900,000 from the film's budget!
Wilson’s new suit alleges that Ghost was sexually harassing the film’s lead actress, Charlotte MacInnes, and “forced MacInnes to live in her Bondi Beach penthouse apartment with her,” where “Ghost took a shower and a bath with MacInnes.” It also claimed that “Ghost was overheard making overtly sexual remarks to MacInnes on set.”
In a statement to 'The Hollywood Reporter', MacInnes said, “There is no truth to the allegations made involving me. I made a statement to the film team when this was first said in September 2023, and I am saying this again now to draw a line under it. Making false accusations undermines real victims, and I won’t be the subject of a fabricated narrative.”
When Wilson reported the allegations to executive producer Danny Cohen, which he allegedly ignored, according to the suit, that’s when the producing trio “orchestrated a malicious and unyielding retaliatory campaign directed at her.”
Wilson claimed that the ongoing threats and intimidation tactics led her to hire “personal security on the set of the movie,” so she could finish filming. The complaint also alleged that Gregor threatened to “terminate” the project and “fire its approximately 300 cast and crew members,” unless she signed a document “stating she withdrew her complaint about Ghost’s sexual misconduct” allegations.
As if the allegations weren't shocking enough, Wilson claims she was subjected to a "malicious and unyielding retaliatory campaign" after bringing these issues to light. The atmosphere on set became so hostile, Wilson had to hire personal security to continue filming.
In a twist, Charlotte MacInnes has publicly denied the allegations involving her, calling them "fabricated." Meanwhile, Wilson's legal team is standing firm, promising that this countersuit is just "the tip of the iceberg" with more revelations to come.
