Overview

  • On August 7, MacInnes served Wilson with a Concerns Notice in Australia, formally initiating defamation proceedings against the actress and director.
  • The notice accuses Wilson of defaming MacInnes by alleging she lied about sexual harassment by producer Amanda Ghost to obtain a lead role and record deal.
  • MacInnes’s legal team describes the Instagram imputations as “false and seriously defamatory” and seeks general and aggravated damages, costs, and a permanent injunction.
  • Wilson has 28 days to respond with a correction or apology before MacInnes can file a formal defamation action in Australian courts.
  • The Deb remains unreleased as multiple lawsuits continue, including a US defamation suit by its producers and a New South Wales claim by UK-based AI Film.
