"Stranger Things" actress Grace Van Dien said she experienced sexual harassment on the set of one of her recent movies, prompting her to put a hold on her acting career.
Van Dien, who stars as Chrissy Cunningham in season four of the hit Netflix series, alleged during a Twitch livestream on Tuesday that a movie producer asked her to join in on a threesome.
Due to the encounter, the actress said she has "turned down four movies" in the last two and a half weeks. "Here's the thing: I've seen that some people are upset with me for turning down acting projects and deciding to stream more, but the fact of the matter is, the last few projects I've worked on, I didn't have the best experiences with some of the people I had to work for," Van Dien said, per Us Weekly. "With streaming, I get to choose who I hang out with, who I talk to, etc., etc." Explaining the alleged encounter, she said, "One of the last movies I did, one of the producers asked me to, like, he hired a girl that he was sleeping with, and then he had her ask me to have a threesome with them.
So like, that's my boss. I didn't [do it] and I cried, and I was so upset, but it's like, when people are like, 'How is streaming better for your mental health?' That's how." Van Dien continued, "I get to stay inside my home and play video games and I don't have my boss asking me to have sex with him.That's how this is better for my mental health." The "What Comes Around" actress noted that she informed her management team, which was "the right way" to handle the alleged incident.
