Franco has also spoken about the allegations saying “Look, in my life I pride myself on taking responsibility for things that I have done. If I have done something wrong, I will fix it-I have to.”

As we reported, Tither-Kaplan and four other women accused Franco of sexual assault in a 2018 Los Angeles Times article. She claimed he operated a scary work environment and forces them to do nude scenes.

“I got it in my head pretty quickly that, OK, you don’t say ‘no’ to this guy,” Tither-Kaplan sais in the L.A. Times. “I feel there was an abuse of power, and there was a culture of exploiting non-celebrity women and a culture of women being replaceable.”
