’Bohemian Rhapsody’ Director Faces More Allegations Of Sexual Abuse Of Teenage Boys in New Exposé

New Allegations have surfaced of sexual abuse against acclaimed film director Bryan Singer.

Singer, who has directed the “X-men” franchise, “The Usual Suspects” and “Bohemian Rhapsody” has been accused in the past of abusing or raping teenage boys, and sued for creating toxic work environments on his movie sets.

Back In December of 2017, with less than a month left of filming the now Oscar-nominated Freddie Mercury biopic “Bohemian Rhapsody,” Singer was fired by the movie studio 20th Century Fox amid sexual misconduct accusations.

A Seattle man named Cesar Sanchez-Guzman sued Singer, accusing him of raping him on a yacht in 2003 when he was 17.

Now, in a scathing and detailed expose published by the Atlantic,  four new victims have come forward documenting numerous incidents of abuse, including the drugging and molestation of underaged boys. The publication spent 12 months investigating and used more than 50 sources.

Victor Valdovinos told the Atlantic that Singer molested him while he was an extra on Singer’s movie “Apt Pupil” in 1997. Valdovinos, who was 13 at the time said Singer “grabbed my genitals and started masturbating it” and “rubbed his front part on me,” while telling him: “You’re so good-looking… I really want to work with you… I have a nice Ferrari… I’m going to take care of you.”

Three other men, who came forward anonymously out of fear of retaliation, said that Singer preyed on them at parties when they were teenagers and molested or raped them.

“He was predatory in that he would ply people with alcohol and drugs and then had sex with them,” one accuser said.

Singer, who has been laying low since last year, tried to get ahead of the impending article which was originally slated to run in Esquire magazine. Last October, he took to his Instagram account and claimed that there was “a reckless disregard for the truth, making assumptions that are fictional and irresponsible,” and suggesting it was aimed to damage the release of “Bohemian Rhapsody.”

Singer called the Atlantic piece a “homophobic smear piece,” but, most notably, did not deny any of the allegations.

Meanwhile, cast and crew of the film have distanced themselves completely from the director and the sex abuse controversy even as the movie has been highly celebrated this awards season, with Academy Award nominations for ‘Best Picture’ and ‘Best Actor’ and a Golden Globe win for ‘Best Picture.’

The Atlantic claims Singer was protected “by an industry in which a record of producing hits confers immense power: Many of the sources we interviewed insisted, out of fear of damaging their own careers, that we withhold their name, even as they expressed dismay at the behaviors they’d witnessed.”

Singer’s lawyers have denied that the director has ever had sex with minors.

Despite the ongoing allegations, he is slated to direct a new movie, “Red Sonja” later this year.
