Rebel Wilson has accused Sacha Baron Cohen of certain behaviour while working on a film, after which she was told to be “professional”.In her new memoir, Rebel Rising, the Australian actor has opened up about her experience working with Baron Cohen on 2016 comedy The Brothers Grimsby, in which she played his character’s girlfriend.Wilson said (via People) about beginning to film the movie: “It felt like every time I’d speak to SBC, he’d mention that he wanted me to go naked in a future scene.
I was like, ‘Ha, I don’t do nudity, Sacha.’”The Pitch Perfect star described one particular alleged incident on set: “SBC summons me via a production assistant saying that I’m needed to film an additional scene. ‘Okay, well, we’re gonna film this extra scene,’ SBC says.Then he pulls his pants down … SBC says very matter-of-factly: ‘Okay, now I want you to stick your finger up my ass.’ And I’m like, ‘What?? … No!!’ …”She continued: “I was now scared.
