Six women have come forward accusing Hollywood film producer/director Brett Ratner of sexual harassment or misconduct. Canadian actress Natasha Henstridge alleged that Ratner forced her to perform oral sex on him when she was 19. “He strong-armed me in a real way. He physically forced himself on me,” she told the LA Times.
Actress Olvia Munn is also one of the six women accusing Ratner. Munn claims that Ratner masturbated in front of her in his trailer back in 2004, when she visited the set of “After the Sunset.” At the time, Munn was an aspiring actress.
Ratner's attorney Martin Singer dismissed the accounts of all the women. "I have represented Mr. Ratner for two decades, and no woman has ever made a claim against him for sexual misconduct or sexual harassment. Furthermore, no woman has ever requested or received any financial settlement from my client,” Singer wrote in a 10-page letter to the Times.
In recent weeks, many women have come forward with allegations against high-profile figures as Harvey Weinstein and director James Toback.
