Ebeling alleges non-consensual incidents during their collaboration, while Alvarez maintains all interactions were consensual and considers legal action.

• Jon Ebeling, a former collaborator of Brian Jordan Alvarez, has accused him of two instances of sexual assault dating back to 2015 and 2016, including an on-set incident during the filming of 'The Gay and Wondrous Life of Caleb Gallo.'
• Ebeling claims he filed a police report with the Los Angeles Police Department in September 2024 and reported the allegations to the Screen Actors Guild.
• Alvarez, through his representatives, has strongly denied the allegations, stating that all interactions with Ebeling were consensual and citing a 2018 recording in which Ebeling reportedly affirmed this.
• The allegations were detailed in a Vulture article, which Alvarez's team criticized as sensationalist, while also alleging that Ebeling has a history of assault himself.
• FX, the network behind Alvarez’s series 'English Teacher,' reviewed the allegations prior to the show’s premiere but has declined further comment and has not renewed the series for a second season.
