By Henry Vaughan, PAAn Irish actor has told how he was “coerced into performing simulated sex acts” in a fake Skype audition by the “con queen of Hollywood” – who was posing as a female film producer. Convinced he was in the running for a “breakthrough role” in a DC Justice League film, Mr O’Brien, who is from Dublin, said he was pressured to “go all out” in a one-way video audition. “I was coerced into performing simulated sex acts over Skype by the con queen in the guise of an audition,” he said. Directed by Tom Waller, Mr O’Brien stars alongside Sleeping With the Enemy star Patrick Bergin and Ravi Patel as the con queen. “This guy would just crush people for fun and sexually harass people, including myself, for his personal gratification,” said Mr O’Brien.
