acclaimed French actor, Gérard Depardieu, is set to attend a Paris court on Monday as his trial for alleged sexual misconduct commences. These allegations stem from incidents that occurred while filming The Green Shutters back in 2021.
As a devoted admirer, I’m sharing news about the upcoming trial concerning accusations made against the actor who portrayed The Count of Monte Cristo. These allegations originate from the assistant director, aged 34, and the set designer, aged 54, both from The Green Shutters production team. They have claimed that I, the actor, assaulted them on set. However, I, in my defense, have consistently denied all such charges, asserting that my actions have been misconstrued.
2022’s film titled The Green Shutters, which is adapted from a 1950 novel by Georges Simenon, features Anouk Grinberg and Fanny Ardant among its cast. However, controversy has arisen around its lead actor, Gérard Depardieu, who is reported to have inappropriately touched the film’s set designer. According to Mediapart, he allegedly trapped her between his legs and groped various parts of her body, including her waist, stomach, and breasts. These actions are described as “violence, coercion, surprise, or threat.
The team members reportedly stepped in to help her, encouraging her to file an official complaint. The film’s director, Jean Becker, was also rumored to back her decision to speak up. However, she is no longer involved in the movie industry – she claimed that she tried to avoid the actor, but he continued to intimidate her with angry glares and muttered insults for the remainder of the production.
Lawyer Carine Durrieu-Diebolt, representing the plaintiff, shared with CNN that their client is anticipating a legal confirmation or official declaration from the judicial system, affirming them as victims of sexual assault.
Previously renowned globally for his roles in Cyrano de Bergerac, Asterix & Obelix vs Caesar, and Green Card, Gerard Depardieu’s career has been marred by escalating allegations of misconduct – accusations he has consistently refuted. This trial marks the initial time he is officially charged with sexual assault in a court of law.
