Rebel Wilson is once again shining light on the conflicts surrounding her stalled film The Deb.

Taking to Instagram Stories on the musical’s official social media account, the 45-year-old entertainer slammed star actress Charlotte MacInnes.

Wilson is currently involved in a legal dispute with The Deb producers Vincent Holden, Gregor Cameron, and Amanda Ghost. She has accused them of misconduct and embezzlement. In response, they have filed a defamation lawsuit against her. 

She also accused them of ‘inappropriate behavior’ toward MacInnes, which the rising star has denied.

Recently, the Bride Hard star shared a video of Charlotte performing at Cannes and made a critical comment about her attire. Wilson expressed disapproval, stating that Charlotte was wearing culturally inappropriate Indian clothing on Len Blavatnik’s luxurious yacht in Cannes. She also mentioned that Charlotte was singing a song from a movie that may never be released due to her alleged lies and support for those obstructing the film’s release.

In another social media post, Wilson sarcastically commented on Charlotte’s record deal, implying that it came at the expense of the 300 individuals who had worked on The Deb and were eager for its release.

In September 2024 Charlotte denied that there was any inappropriate behavior, prompting Rebel to allege that the actress rescinded her accusations to score a new job from one of the producers.

McInnes told DailyMail.com at the time: ‘There is no truth to the allegations made involving me. I made a statement to the film team when this was first said in September 2023 and am saying this now to draw a line under it. Making false accusations undermines real victims and I won’t be the subject of a fabricated narrative.’

After working with one of the producers, Amanda, on The Deb, Charlotte was later cast by her as Daisy in Florence Welch’s musical Gatsby: An American Myth in the show’s pre-Broadway run at Boston’s A.R.T. 

Rebel subsequently shared a screenshot of the Daily Mail article on her Instagram Stories and wrote, per Just Jared, ‘When an actress on her first feature film is asked by a producer to stay in the same apartment as them, and then makes a complaint to me as the director saying said producer ‘asked her to have a bath and shower with her and it made her feel uncomfortable’ – what am I supposed to do Of course I reported it.’

She added, ‘There is no world where this is acceptable. The fact that this girl has been employed now by this ‘producer’ in the lead role of a production called GATSBY (ART Boston) and given a record label – should be all the proof you need as to why she has now changed her story.’

In documents filed to the Los Angeles superior court and obtained by The Guardian in November 2024, MacInnes claimed she informed Wilson that she was never sexually harassed by Amanda.

Despite Charlotte’s claim that she informed Wilson harassment had never occurred, the Pitch Perfect actress still brought the accusations of mistreatment forward. 

‘I was deeply disturbed by this behavior by Wilson, who was the director of the film and in a position of authority over me,’ MacInnes alleged.

Charlotte added in her official statement: ‘Nothing that I told Wilson could reasonably have conveyed that I was reporting any misconduct, because there was no misconduct.

‘I also understand [there were] claims that I was subjected to “depraved sexual demands” and that “MacInnes remains captive by Ghost and (fellow producer) Cameron as she is shuttled from city to city with them including Boston, New York, and London.”

‘These statements are completely false and absurd. I have no idea what could cause Wilson and her attorney to make up such lies about me.’
