In the face of a defamation lawsuit from ex-fiance Marilyn Manson, Evan Rachel Wood says she’s “steady as a rock” and definitely “not scared.”
Wood, who publicly accused Manson — legal name Brian Warner — of abuse in February 2021 and was sued by Warner in return earlier this month for alleged defamation, fraud and conspiracy, appeared Monday on “The View” to talk about her documentary “Phoenix Rising.” The two-part project airs Tuesday and Wednesday on HBO.
“I can’t, obviously, speak about any of the specific allegations of the lawsuit. But I am not scared,” the “Westworld” actor told co-host Sunny Hostin after being asked about Warner’s defamation action. “I am sad ’cause this is how it works. This is what pretty much every survivor that tries to expose someone in a position of power goes through.”
