A man, who has sued “X-Men” filmmaker Bryan Singer claiming he had raped him as a teenager, named three more Hollywood executives in lawsuits filed on Monday. Michael Egan, 31, who was a teen actor in Los Angeles, said television executives Garth Ancier and David Neuman and entertainment firm executive Gary Goddard were part of an underage sex ring in Hollywood in late 1999 and 2000 that had abused Egan. A representative for Goddard said he was out of the country currently. Ancier did not respond to calls and emails seeking comment, and Neuman could not immediately be reached. In a news conference on Monday, Egan was accompanied by his mother Bonnie Mound and attorney Jeff Herman. He told reporters that he had faced backlash* since last week when he filed his lawsuit against Singer, whose “X-Men: Days of the Future Past” film will open in U.S. theaters next month. Egan urge other victims to come forward, saying, “We have people that can protect us now.” In the lawsuits against each individual, Egan alleged that he was induced or coerced into sexual activity at “infamous and degenerate parties” hosted by former entertainment business executive Marc Collins-Rector, a registered sex offender.(SD-Agencies) |
