Actress Julia Ormond is suing disgraced producer Harvey Weinstein for sexual battery. In the lawsuit filed Wednesday and obtained by Page Six, the “Legends of the Fall” star alleges that Weinstein sexually assaulted her following a business dinner in 1995.
Ormond, 58, claims in the lawsuit that Weinstein, 71, told her that he would only discuss a project “back at the apartment Miramax had provided for Ormond as part of their first-look deal with her.”
Ormond agreed to have Weinstein come to her apartment where he allegedly “stripped naked and forced her to perform oral sex on him.”
After the alleged incident, the “Sabrina” star claims in the suit that she informed her agents Kevin Huvane and Bryan Lourd about what had occurred.
However, Ormond claims they allegedly advised her against speaking out and did not protect her afterward. She is also suing Creative Artists Agency (CAA) for negligence and breach of fiduciary duty.
