X-Men Director Bryan Singer accused of teen sex abuse.
(PCM) X-Men Days of Future Past is just around the corner. Is the film’s openly gay director Bryan Singer about to face his past in similar turmoil? A lawsuit was filed today by plaintiff Michael Egan’s attorney Jeff Herman. He plans to file many other teen sex abuse complaints.
Allegedly back in 1998 Bryan Singer flew a 17 year old boy to party with him in Hawaii on numerous occasions where Singer promised him a future in Hollywood if he participated in homosexual acts after being warned to keep Singer and other adult’s “happy”. According to the suit, “the adults who resided in or frequented the M & C Estate controlled Hollywood and could decide whether Plaintiff’s career aspirations and hopes would be realized”.
The theme of the suit is that the teen, who was not gay was sodomized and threatened that his career in film would be destroyed if he didn’t cooperate.
Singer’s own attorney has responded inside the day stating the allegations are “absurd and defamatory.” Representatives are in damage control stating they are “completely without merit.”
If true, what does this mean for the future of Singer’s legacy in film? Would he be expected to disappear as many other stars and celebrities have after being caught in criminal sex acts?
