For several weeks now, the Weinstein fire has slowly encircled “X-Men” director Bryan Singer, but somehow he keeps escaping its reach, despite having a rap sheet of sexual misconduct allegations going all the way back to 1997. Let’s recap them, shall we:
Back in 2014, his film X Men: Days of Future Past nearly came undone when actor Michael Egan III filed a civil suit alleging that Singer drugged him and “forced him into sex at parties in Encino and Hawaii — starting when Egan was only 15.” Singer denied the allegations and the lawsuit was eventually dropped. At the same time, though, another alleged victim filed suit against Singer, making similar accusations. That suit was also, eventually, dismissed.
