Rebel Wilson is standing by her allegations against Sacha Baron Cohen, saying her claims about his 'a--hole' behavior on a movie set were 'fully legally vetted.'

Rebel Wilson isn't backing down from her shocking claims about former co-star Sacha Baron Cohen. The actress wrote about her experience of working with Cohen in her new memoir, 'Rebel Rising,' describing how uncomfortable she felt while filming their 2016 film, 'The Brothers Grimsby.' Cohen has vehemently denied her claims, and now, Wilson is insisting she's telling the truth, saying she was 'humiliated and degraded as a person' on the movie set.

Just feeling humiliated and degraded as a person, I just thought it's worth sharing in the book because there's probably a lot of people out there that have had the same experiences,' she continued. Wilson also claimed that since her allegations about Cohen's behavior have been getting attention, 'I've had a lot of women reach out and say that they've had similar experiences with this guy.

will not be bullied or silenced by high priced lawyers or PR crisis managers,' Wilson wrote on her Instagram story last week. 'The ‘a--hole’ that I am talking about in ONE CHAPTER of my book is: Sacha Baron Cohen.' In 'The Brothers Grimsby,' Wilson and Cohen starred together as a husband and wife of nine kids. Later, Wilson accused Cohen of 'harassing' her on the movie set during a radio show interview, according to Variety.

Every day he’s like, ‘Just go naked. It will be funny. Remember in ‘Borat’ when I did that naked scene? It was hilarious,’' Wilson said, the outlet reported. 'On the last day, I thought I’d obviously won the argument, and he got a body double to do the naked scene.' Cohen allegedly told Wilson to 'stick finger up butt' while filming the last scene, despite the move not being included in the script. 'Look, I’ll just pull down my pants.

representative for Cohen denied her claims, telling Fox News Digital, 'While we appreciate the importance of speaking out, these demonstrably false claims are directly contradicted by extensive detailed evidence, including contemporaneous documents, film footage, and eyewitness accounts from those present before, during and after the production of ‘The Brothers Grimsby.
