Casey Affleck Sued For Sexual Harassment!
July 26th, 2010 | by admin |
Seems the Joaquin Phoenix documentary I had written about earlier was not a joke after all- in fact Casey Affleck the director is in fact being sued by one of the producers for sexual harassment! Amanda White -the producer in question- claims Affleck made several unwelcome sexual advances on her and when he learnt her age he apparently asked ”Isn’t it about time you get pregnant?”. The allegations get even more embarrassing as she claims that when filming the documentary in Costa Rica she couldn’t sleep in her room because Affleck and Joaquin Phoenix were in it with two women.
Affleck hasn’t taken the allegations lying down either. He has come out and tried to paint Amanda White as just another disgruntled ex-employee. His lawyer called the claims as “preposterous and without merit” and that White was kicked off the production over a year ago and is using this law suit to twist the producers’ arms into succumbing into allegedly ‘outrageous’ demands. It looks like ‘I’m Still Here: The Lost Year of Joaquin Phoenix’ is already a controversial production and it hasn’t even hit the theatres yet!
