He created the show television cult classics Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future and Skeleton Warriors, wrote and produced some of the greatest attraction rides in the world including Universal Studios’ T2 3-D: Battle Across Time, and even wrote and produced a movie infamous for pissing people off called Tarzan, the Ape Man.
But despite his accolades, Gary Goddard‘s name is popping up these days for all of the wrong reasons!
Bryan Singer‘s sexual assault accuser Michael Egan has named Gary and two other executives – Garth Ancier and David Neuman – in a separate lawsuit that claims the three run a Hollywood sex ring!
Michael Egan had mentioned previously, when he first filed the lawsuit against the X-Men director, that other suits were in the making, and we guess this was what he was talking about!
However it seems like Gary Goddard at least is taking the Bryan Singer route, and has had his lawyer dismiss these claims as totally “without merit!!”
Here’s what Gary’s attorney Alan Grodin said:
“Gary Goddard is out of the country and we have not seen the complaint. Based on what we have heard, the allegations are without merit. Once we have seen the complaint we will respond appropriately.”
Short and succinct.
Two words that seem like the opposite of how this case will play out!
We bet director Amy Berg, who was working on a tell-all documentary about all of this hush hush Hollywood sex stuff, is pretty mad at Michael Egan. He’s spoiling the whole movie!
In all seriousness we sincerely hope these allegations aren’t true just for the sole fact that the claims are SO disturbing.
Nevertheless, we have a feeling whatever did happen, will be revealed in court later down the road.
But will these be the last names on Michael Egan’s accusations list, or does he have more up his sleeve?!
Guess we’ll all find out soon enough!
