Shock on Set: Stuntwoman Sues Kevin Costner Over Rape Scene!
Are you ready for a story that will horrify you and make you question what really goes on behind the scenes in the film industry? Devyn Labella, a stuntwoman known for her work on the film Horizon 2, has filed a lawsuit against Kevin Costner and the production over a scene she claims was a brutal violation of her consent and basic workplace safety.
What happened?
Last month, Labella sued Costner and Territory Pictures, alleging she was forced to film a violent simulated rape scene without any preparation, warning, or rehearsal. She states the scene was changed at the last minute, and she was not informed of the changes. Actress Ella Hunt, for whom Labella was a double, refused to film the scene and left the set, but Labella was substituted without her knowledge and forced to perform the scene.
Reckless violation of rights
In her statement, Labella describes the scene as a reckless violation of her consent and basic workplace safety. She says she was subjected to indignities including being stripped of her underwear and simulated violence, and was left alone afterward, overwhelmed by shock and humiliation. She adds that the system on set is broken and that abuse of power and ignorance must change.
Where was the intimacy coordinator?
Labella attached messages exchanged with the intimacy coordinator, asking why there was no coordinator on set, why there was no preparation, why the scene was not filmed in a closed environment, and who will take responsibility for negligence and abuse of power.
Costner’s lawyers respond
Kevin Costner’s lawyers dismiss the allegations as fabrications. They say there was no sexual scene, only a rehearsal where Labella was fully clothed and had her dress pulled. They also note that Labella sent messages thanking the production for wonderful weeks on set after filming.
What does this mean for the film industry?
This lawsuit shines a light on serious problems in the entertainment industry — issues of consent, safety, and respect for workers on set. If the allegations are true, it is an alarming example of how power can be abused and basic human rights ignored.
Conclusion
Will Kevin Costner and the production be held accountable? Will the industry finally address the safety and dignity of its workers? One thing is certain — this story will not leave anyone indifferent.
