Raine Maida on marriage, music and the Maritimes | SaltWire - British actor-comedian Russell Brand was accused in a lawsuit filed on Friday of sexually assaulting a film extra on the New York City set of the 2011 romantic comedy"Arthur," in which he starred as a boozing, philandering heir to a fortune.
It was brought in state court under New York's Adult Survivors Act, which gives accusers a one-year window to sue over alleged sexual abuse from a long time ago, even if statutes of limitations have expired. The complaint was brought by a woman identified only as Jane Doe who said she was hired to appear as a cast"extra" in a scene from"Arthur" filmed at Le Cirque restaurant in Manhattan in July of 2010.
