Actor Gerard Depardieu charged with rape and sexual assault

Actor Gerard Depardieu has been charged with rape and sexual assault towards a young actress.

The matter was first reported to the police in August 2018, with AFP’s reports on the case verdict since confirmed by the courts.

The victim had accused the 72-year-old Frenchman of rape in Paris on up to two occasions just days apart.

The case against Depardieu was initially dropped in 2019 for a lack of evidence but was reopened last year, with the actor accused of the crimes in December.

Depardieu’s lawyer, Herve Temime, had said that his client completely rejected the accusations.
