Hollywood actor Rebel Wilson has secured a courtroom victory after she was found not to have defamed her co-star. Wilson was sued by Australian actor Charlotte MacInnes, who played the lead role in Wilson’s directorial debut The Deb.
Allegations and Court Ruling
MacInnes alleged the Pitch Perfect star defamed her in a series of social media posts she claimed implied she was a liar and a sellout who walked back a sexual harassment complaint to further her career. But two months after the conclusion of the hotly contested court battle, Justice Elizabeth Raper found MacInnes “failed to establish that the publications have caused or were likely to cause serious harm”.
