Actor who said some

Atherton recalls another actor was asked to play with her naked breasts on camera. They said the actor playing with her breasts had been improvising and rejected any comparison to pornography. On set, Atherton says she recalls Clarke showing her naked photographs sent by women to his phone. She, too, accuses him of sexually harassing her on a daily basis during production. She says she complained to Clarke and her superiors and the misconduct stopped.

She also recounts behaviour on set she believes was highly inappropriate. In between takes, Clarke asked Kim if she had ever had a threesome. One day on set, Kim says, Clarke came up behind her and put his arms around her waist, before kissing her neck.

The characters played by Kim and Clarke were scripted to perform a sex scene. When Kim accepted the role, she had been told she would be able to wear underwear, including a bra, during the scene. But in the run-up to filming, she says, Clarke repeatedly pressed her to go topless. Clarke called her on the phone to put pressure on her, she says.

Clarke denies bullying or sexually harassing Crabb, denies he is a scary person and denies shouting at her in the car. On set, she says Clarke would whisper sexually explicit things in her ear and sit too close to her. Clarke would also openly bully her, she says.

Powell stopped working for Unstoppable in March She started work at another film company in a development role, but would avoid walking anywhere near the branch of Soho House that Clarke uses for business meetings.

In recent weeks, after discovering that allegations of sexual misconduct against Clarke had surfaced and been reported to Bafta, and were being investigated by the Guardian, Clarke and his business partner, Jason Maza, contacted people who might know what was going on.

At least five people who were contacted allege or say they witnessed sexual misconduct by Clarke. In at least two cases, the Guardian understands those contacted were left in tears. One recipient of a call from Clarke was James, whom he called on 10 April — the day he received the award.

When she returned his repeated calls on 14 April, he asked her who might be behind the allegations. He repeatedly asked her not to speak to a Guardian journalist. Do not speak to this woman [the Guardian journalist] … Do not entertain it. Secondly, they still have to prove it.

But they still have to prove it. Before hanging up, Clarke said he would apologise to any women he may have made sexually inappropriate remarks about.

Later, Paley said, she and Franco advanced their consensual sexual relationship. Today, she said she would have handled the encounter in the car differently, especially in the wake of the Weinstein scandal.

Paley said she told several friends and family members about her encounter with Franco. Five of them confirmed their conversations with The Times.

After Franco won the Golden Globe, Paley expressed her outrage Sunday night, tweeting about their alleged encounter in her car.

After the Weinstein allegations were reported last fall, Paley emailed Franco, expressing her anger and sadness over his treatment of her she provided The Times with a copy of the email.

He said it was wrong for him to have a sexual relationship with someone he knew to be in recovery for substance abuse, Paley recalled.
