Overview
- Yi Zhou says Renner first contacted her in June with two photos followed by a string of unsolicited pornographic images via direct message and WhatsApp.
- Zhou provided media with screenshots she says document WhatsApp exchanges, including a porn clip and messages from colleagues who urged her to seek safety.
- She alleges that during an August meeting at Renner’s home he drank, yelled for two hours, and left her so frightened she locked herself in a room and location-shared with her team and family.
- After she confronted him about his conduct, Zhou says Renner threatened to report her to immigration authorities, citing a partial message reading, “Immigration will be notified of your —.”
- Zhou also contends Renner declined to promote their films, Chronicles of Disney and Stardust Future, and denied their relationship, while multiple outlets report his camp’s blanket denial of her claims.
