Tatiana Siegel “The Deb” has finally made its debut. Sort of. The coming-of-age musical, which has been caught in the middle of a bare-knuckled brawl between director Rebel Wilson and a trio of producers, screened for a select group of industry figures at WME’s offices in Beverly Hills on Monday afternoon.
Wilson was in attendance for the screening, which was described as an “intimate private” event in an invitation. Before the screening, the “Pitch Perfect” star made a quick speech thanking everyone for showing up and urged guests “to laugh and cry and feel anything they wanted.” After the credits rolled, Wilson reemerged and teared up, apparently moved by the crowd’s enthusiastic response, according to an attendee.
Among the guests were fellow Aussie directors Phillip Noyce and Sophia Banks as well as reps from Netflix and Universal. The film, which marks Wilson’s directing debut, has sparked wild claims from both sides, with the “Pitch Perfect” star accusing the film’s producers Amanda Ghost, Gregor Cameron and Vince Holden of siphoning money from the budget, while the trio hit back by suing Wilson for defamation.
Wilson additionally claimed in a social media post that Ghost — who is married to Cameron — sexually harassed one of the film’s young stars during production.
