Rebel Wilson has detailed the gross requests she claims Sacha Baron Cohen asked of her.
As previously reported, Wilson called out Cohen earlier this week, revealing him to be the "a**hole" she refers to in her upcoming memoir, Rebel Rising.
Wilson recently took to Instagram Reels on March 15 to share her reflections.
Check out Rebel's video below:
"When I first came to Hollywood, people were like, yeah, 'I have a no a**hole policy, [it] means like, yeah, I don’t work with a**holes.' I was like, 'Oh yeah. I mean, that sounds sensible or logical,'" Wilson shared candidly.
"But then it really sunk in [what they, the older people in the industry, meant] because I worked with a massive a**hole and yeah, now I definitely have a no a**holes policy," she continued.
"I wrote about an a**hole in my book. Now, said a**hole is trying to threaten me," Wilson revealed. "He’s hired a crisis PR manager and lawyers. He is trying to stop press coming out about my book. But the book WILL come out, and you will all know the truth."
Earlier this week, the Australian actress added in an Instagram Story that she had allegedly been facing legal pressure from his attorneys to remove any mention of Cohen in her book.
So what are the allegations that Wilson is making against Cohen?
According to reports from People, Wilson recounts instances where Cohen allegedly pressured her to perform nude scenes.
"It felt like every time I’d speak to SBC [Sacha Baron Cohen], he’d mention that he wanted me to go naked in a future scene. I was like, 'Ha, I don’t do nudity, Sacha,'" Wilson wrote.
"Every day he’s like, 'Just go naked, it will be funny." she continued. "Remember in Borat when I did that naked scene? It was hilarious.' On the last day I thought I’d obviously won the argument, and he got a body double to do the naked scene."
The tension allegedly escalated during filming at a soccer stadium in Cape Town. Wilson alleges that Cohen unexpectedly exposed himself and made disturbing requests.
"SBC summons me via a production assistant saying that I’m needed to film an additional scene... Then he pulls his pants down … SBC says very matter-of-factly: ‘Okay, now I want you to stick your finger up my a**.’ And I’m like, ‘What?? … No!!’ …” Wilson claimed.
Desperate to defuse the situation, Wilson said that she reluctantly agreed to a compromise, slapping Cohen on the butt and improvising lines as the character.
In response to Wilson's accusations, Cohen's team strongly denied the claims, providing People with anonymous statements from individuals involved in the movie, contradicting Wilson's version of events.
"While we appreciate the importance of speaking out, these demonstrably false claims are directly contradicted by extensive detailed evidence, including contemporaneous documents, film footage and eyewitness accounts from those present before, during, and after the production of The Brothers Grimsby," Cohen's team stated.
Rebel Rising is scheduled for global release on April 2.
