Australian actress Rebel Wilson has recently made headlines after revealing that fellow actor Sasha Baron Cohen has been sending her threats in an attempt to prevent her from publishing her upcoming memoir, titled “Rebel Rising.”
Wilson had previously referred to a “massive a**hole” whom she had worked with, who had hired a crisis PR team and started sending her threats after she mentioned she would dedicate a chapter to him in her book. In a recent Instagram update, Wilson confirmed that the unidentified star is indeed Sasha Baron Cohen.
Despite the threats and legal actions from Baron Cohen, Wilson stated that she will not be bullied or silenced by high-priced lawyers or PR crisis managers. The actress, known for her roles in comedies such as “Pitch Perfect” and “Bridesmaids,” has vowed to continue with the publication of her memoir.
Wilson and Baron Cohen have had a rocky working relationship in the past, having starred together in the 2016 film “The Brothers Grimsby.” In a 2014 radio interview, Wilson claimed that Baron Cohen pressured her to go naked in the film and asked her to stick her finger up his butt during a scene, despite it not being in the script.
Despite the controversies surrounding their past collaborations, Wilson seems determined to share her side of the story in her upcoming memoir. Fans are eagerly anticipating the release of “Rebel Rising” and are showing their support for Wilson in the face of the threats from Baron Cohen. Stay tuned to see how this Hollywood drama unfolds.
