Bryan Singer will keep "Red Sonja" directing gig despite new accusations

I had this written up in the other Singer thread so:
This is the dude (Lerner) who is producing it:
So not a big surprise that he's gonna be defiant on it. (incidentally dude is also one of the more notable Hollywood conservatives, so the sniping about "fake news" isn't surprising either)

Via Variety (there is more nastiness in the article)

He's connected and probably has dirt on other Hollywood higher ups. It could arguably be more damning than Weinstein.
there we go.
Thats the right path to take. Not the whole "OMG HES A SCUMBAG." He is, for sure. For sure. Whose going to his sex parties @ his house though?
Yep. Hes dogshit as a talent. And yet... we're here. I mean not dogshit but, nothing spectacular.
I've long hated him, just at this point that is where I am. I did the scumbag thing the past 10 threads on it.
He’s such a middling director that it makes me believe the theory he has dirt on people who have attended his parties. Probably tons of powerful Hollywood people know he can bring them down.
Good to know someone else remembers this
What did happen with Rodriguez?
I bet he has dirt on a lot of execs.
And on a sidenote, Red Sonja? Are they gonna change her backstory? Cause its...problematic nowadays...

Uh yeah weren't there already credible accusations against him during the making of Days of Future Past, 5 years ago? And then he gets X-Men Apocalypse. And then he gets Bohemian Rhapsody. And then he gets Red Sonja.
Not like you haven't had time to adjust here people. 5+ years!

My thoughts as well. Singer's a thoroughly mediocre filmmaker in the first place that the first whiff of these disgusting allegations should've been enough to get his number dropped from every major producer's Rolodex, but we got Jack the Giant Slayer instead.
Keep in mind that at the time, he had Rose McGowan in mind for the part, as they were dating. They split a year later, and I think that was around the same time he left the project as well.
On-topic: Man, fuck everyone involved with this mess with a railroad spike.
How is he so untouchable? It’s been well-known for a decade or more what a creep he is, and he has more vocal victims than many perpetrators outed by #MeToo.
It isn’t as if he’s a great talent or even very professional — look at his mishandling of Bohemian Rhapsody.

Just so interesting how he continuously gets a pass. An Open Secret went out in 2014. Seems like every few months things involving him get discussed.
And it is disgusting that he is just brushing it off as people being homophobic.
Yeah, Bad Hat Harry isn't even a very good production house.
They basically produce his movies, various X-men crap and House which has been off air for a long god damned time.
His last movie he walked off the set of... so??? Nothing adds up from his artistic production or to him as a rain maker for the reasons as to why this guy is protected.
The only explanation is he must have too much information on the rest of Hollywood.

Wouldn't surprise me if financiers or co-producers of the movie are backing out, or they realize that no distributor would pick it up that would make up for the budget.
Shame because I would like to see a new red Sonja movie.
I hope they just get rid of Singer and move on with a different director.

Ugh...
First the X-Men, then Superman, now Red Sonja.
This cretin keeps screwing my favorite characters.
Also, who would want to work with him now? its almost career suicide.
