James Gunn Warned Us? Jared Leto Faces Sexual Misconduct Allegations

by

An explosive expose published by Air Mail alleges that a total of nine women have made claims against actor Jared Leto for inappropriate behavior spanning over twenty years, with certain accusations involving underage individuals.

The Allegations

Reports, corroborated by People magazine among others, have leveled serious allegations against Leto. These accusations involve alleged improper conduct with minors and explicit misbehavior. Some women claim that Leto initiated contact with them when they were 16 or 17 years old, engaging in late-night conversations of a sexual nature. Others allege instances where Leto exposed himself, masturbated in front of a young woman, and pressured sexual encounters.

In this scenario, model Laura La Rue and DJ Allie Teilz are two individuals who have accused actor Jared Leto. La Rue claims that she met him when she was 16 years old and he subsequently invited her to his home at the age of 17. While there, she alleges that he flirted with her and walked out naked. Similarly, DJ Allie Teilz asserts that their encounter occurred when she was 17, and Leto is said to have attempted to force himself on her backstage. In a 2012 Facebook post, which she later reposted, DJ Allie Teilz referred to Leto as “Hollywood’s most persistent predator,” describing the experience as “predatory, terrifying, and unacceptable.

Leto’s Response

Representatives for Leto have flat-out rejected all accusations, labeling some as provably untrue. They maintain that any interactions were harmless and challenge assertions that accusers like La Rue ever sought employment from Leto – a claim La Rue has countered. However, Leto himself has remained silent on the matter, choosing not to publicly address the allegations.

Past Comments from James Gunn

Prior to being temporarily dismissed by Disney in 2018 due to reemerging contentious tweets, it’s worth noting that James Gunn had made several public statements criticizing Jared Leto. These comments were highlighted earlier, and more recently have garnered renewed interest in the context of ongoing allegations.

Back in May 2018, I saw a post by Dylan Sprouse stating that Jared Leto often dates women younger than himself, aged between 18 and 25. James Gunn responded to this post with a tweet that read, “He starts at 18 online?” Many people perceived this comment as a suggestion of questionable behavior towards minors. Since then, the tweet has been removed from Gunn’s official account on platform X (previously known as Twitter).

Previous occurrences have been mentioned as well. In 2015, there were reports that Gunn made inappropriate comments about Leto during a live Periscope broadcast, which he later removed. As stated by several sources at the time, Gunn discussed gossip about Leto’s personal life, involving unsubstantiated accusations concerning underage individuals. Later on, Gunn offered a short apology on Instagram: “My sincere apologies to everyone worldwide who witnessed my Ambien-induced Periscope stream in the early hours of the morning (yes, I deleted it).

In simpler terms, a tweet from 2012 that was subsequently removed contained Gunn jokingly commenting about Jared Leto, saying “On my way home from Vegas, we were sharing tales about how much of a jerk Jared Leto can be.

Context and Timing

It’s said that questionable events apparently started around the mid-2000s, with some going back as far as 2006. No lawsuits have been brought yet, but because these accusations are public, their effect has grown stronger, especially considering Leto’s well-known part in Tron: Ares.

The release of the Air Mail report coincides with a surge in marketing activities for the upcoming movie Tron: Ares, sparking debates about how Disney and its associates will manage the ensuing controversy, given that the film is scheduled to premiere on October 10, 2025.
