Description
Rebel Wilson has successfully defended a defamation case in Sydney.
The lawsuit was filed by Charlotte MacInnes, who was the lead actress in Wilson's directorial debut, The Deb.
MacInnes claimed Wilson defamed her in a series of social media posts that implied she was a liar and a sellout who walked back a sexual harassment complaint to further her career.
The Federal Court found in favour of Wilson, with Justice Elizabeth Raper saying MacInnes "failed to establish that the publications have caused or were likely to cause serious harm."
In 2025, Rebel defended her actions on 60 Minutes, saying she acted on a complaint because she had a legal, ethical and moral responsibility as the director of the movie.
