Rebel Wilson is being sued by the producers of her directorial debut, The Deb, for what the plaintiffs call spiteful behavior and malicious lies.
Why was Rebel Wilson sued?
The lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Monday by producers Amanda Ghost and Gregory Cameron and executive producer Vince Holden. The producers allege Wilson of lying about the group and blocking her film from having its premiere at the closing of the Toronto International Film Festival in September.
“Defendant Rebel Wilson has a history of fabricating false and malicious lies to hide her own lack of professionalism and advance her own self-interest,” reads part of the complaint (via Deadline). “This lawsuit is about holding Rebel accountable for her attempts to bully Plaintiffs into conceding to her unreasonable demands by spreading vicious lies without regard for the irreparable damage her reckless words would cause on the hard-earned personal and professional reputations of Plaintiffs.”
The lawsuit comes just a few days after Wilson took to social media to call out the producers by name for what she called “vile and disgusting behavior.” In the video, Wilson claimed that she discovered “bad behavior” by the group and accused them of being inappropriate with one of the lead actresses of the movie and embezzling funds from the movie.
In the lawsuit, the trio of producers are seeking various unspecified damages.
