Actor Gérard Depardieu charged with rape | Entertainment

entertainment">Depardieu allegedly raped and assaulted an ‘actress in her twenties’ in 2018. Previous investigations have been conducted into the alleged sexual misconduct of the 72-year-old actor. That charge was later dropped for lack of evidence, but the case was nevertheless reopened in December.

entertainment">The actor became known for films such as Mammuth, Green Card in Cyrano de Bergerac. For this he received several international and French prizes. In front of Cyrano he was nominated for the Oscar in 1991, but insiders say he missed the award due to fuss over an interview in which he said that he had often witnessed rapes in his poor youth.
