\u201cI could have had the biggest sexual harassment lawsuit in Hollywood history,\u201d the actor recently revealed in an interview <\/p>\n
\n\tDean Cain, who starred as Superman<\/a> in Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, has alleged that he was sexually harassed while filming the popular television series in the Nineties. During a recent interview with Variety<\/a>, the actor stated, \u201cI could have had the biggest sexual harassment lawsuit in Hollywood history.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tCain never pursued action against the person he claims harassed him, and declined to share further details about the allegation. The outlet noted that the harassment \u201ctook a toll\u201d on his relationship with Gabrielle Reece, the volleyball player he started dating in 1992. It went beyond the objectification he faced on set from executives and crew members. \u201cAny guy who tells you he feels bad being objectified, I mean, really? Come on,\u201d he said. \u201cIt\u2019s a wonderful compliment.\u201d<\/p>\n \n\tCain also insisted that there were incidents unrelated to any harassment that could have resulted in a legal battle. He recalled being \u201cadvised not to\u201d sue Warner Bros. over his schedule and finances from the series. \u201cI didn\u2019t know enough back then about residuals. Warner Bros. buries the bodies deep and makes it look like it\u2019s lost money. There\u2019s no possible way,\u201d he said. \u201cBut I should have sued.\u201d<\/p>\n \t\tTrending Stories<\/p>\n \n\tHe claimed being overworked on Lois & Clark is the reason he\u2019s avoided television since. \u201cThere was no time to work out, because they couldn\u2019t give me a workout clause, because then they\u2019d have to for every other star and then it sets precedent for Warner Bros,\u201d he said. \u201cThat\u2019s why I haven\u2019t done a series since. It feels like suffocating. You feel claustrophobic.\u201d Before turning to acting, Cain was a professional football player.<\/p>\n \n\tStill, Cain has made appearances in a number of shows since his role as Superman ended. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cI could have had the biggest sexual harassment lawsuit in Hollywood history,\u201d the actor recently revealed in an…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":35311,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[49,48,361,75,5769],"class_list":{"0":"post-35310","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-celebrities","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-celebrities","11":"tag-entertainment","12":"tag-superman"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35310","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=35310"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/35310\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/35311"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=35310"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=35310"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=35310"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
