The Independent:

Morgan Freeman has been accused of sexual harassment by multiple women.

The Oscar-winning actor is alleged to have behaved inappropriately towards eight women, including staff on film sets,employees of his production company, and journalists.

The claims emerged following an investigation by CNN, which cited 16 sources who said they were the targets of or had witnessed Freeman’s behaviour.

CNN:

A young production assistant thought she had landed the job of her dreams when, in the summer of 2015, she started work on "Going In Style," a bank heist comedy starring Morgan Freeman,Michael Caine and Alan Arkin.

But the job quickly devolved into several months of harassment, she told CNN. She alleges that Freeman subjected her to unwanted touching and comments about her figure and clothing on a near-daily basis. Freeman would rest his hand on her lower back or rub her lower back, she said.
