Gérard Depardieu should be found guilty of the “indisputable” sexual assault of a set decorator, as well as sexual assaults of an assistant film director, the French state prosecutor has told Paris’s criminal court, requesting the actor serve an 18-month suspended prison sentence.
Depardieu is on trial for the alleged sexual assault of the women, aged 54 and 34, during the shooting of the film Les Volets Verts (The Green Shutters) in Paris in 2021. He has denied any wrongdoing, telling the court: “I deny all of it.”
