Overview

• Devyn LaBella alleges that on May 2, 2023, Costner directed an impromptu rape scene without advance notice, consent or an intimacy coordinator, breaching union protocols
• She says the incident inflicted lasting emotional trauma, forced her into therapy and led to her exclusion from future Horizon installments as retaliation
• Filed May 27 in Los Angeles Superior Court, the complaint names Costner and the production companies and demands unspecified damages alongside a public apology and mandatory harassment training
• Costner’s attorney Marty Singer rejects the claims as baseless, labels LaBella a serial accuser and points to texts showing she was ‘in good spirits’ after the shoot
• The lawsuit underscores wider industry scrutiny of intimacy coordination just months before Horizon 2’s release remains postponed following Chapter 1’s box office underperformance
