James Franco sued by ex-acting school students for sexual exploitation.
is being accused in a new lawsuit of pressuring his acting school students to get naked for auditions while he dangled promises of movie roles that rarely panned out., says that both women were students at the L.A. branch of the Studio 4 school -- which Franco co-founded -- back in 2014. The women claim Franco, and other instructors, engaged in"inappropriate and sexually charged behavior toward female students.
According to the docs, Franco offered them roles in independent films he was producing or directing. Their issue is what they had to do got those roles. In the suit, they claim Franco blew off several film industry guidelines for nude scenes. For instance, they claim young and inexperienced female students were"routinely pressured to engage in simulated sex acts that went far beyond the standards in the industry.
For her part, Toni claims she was denied entry into a sex scenes master class because she had voiced uneasiness about how it was run. Sarah says she did get into the class, and actually did land roles in Franco productions -- but was often required to shoot nude and/or sex scenes. In docs, she references one in particular -- an orgy scene -- where she claims Franco removed the plastic genital guards from"actresses' vaginas while he simulated oral sex on them."
The NY Times and NPR first reported the lawsuit, which the women are seeking to make a class action that would allow other Studio 4 students to join.
