Bryan Singer Sex Abuse Accuser Sues Three More Hollywood Biggies

Bryan Singer's sex abuse accuser named three more big Hollywood names in a lawsuit.

The Daily News reported that Michael Egan III, Bryan Singer's sex abuse accuser, claims in a lawsuit that ex-NBC Entertainment head Garth R. Ancier, former Disney executive David Alexander Neuman and Broadway producer Gary Wayne Goddard engaged in inappropriate behavior with him in the 90s when he was a minor.

Last week, Nevada actor Michael Egan III publicly accused Bryan Singer, the director of "X Men," of molesting him when he was 15. Egan filed federal lawsuits in Hawaii on Monday suing three other Hollywood figures.

Egan's lawyer, Jeff Herman claimed the three men were, along with Singer, part of an alleged "sordid sex ring," and accused them of "grooming" underage boys during the 1990s.

Egan is suing for $10 million in in damages. He is suing on charges of battery, assault, invasion of privacy and intentional infliction of emotional distress.

Egan announced the lawsuit at a press conference in Los Angeles that Egan attended with his mother.

Egan said "Somebody has to stand up to these people. You can't change the stigma that exists in this world against childhood sexual abuse unless someone talks about it."

While explaining why she let him go to the parties and on trips, Egan's mother, Bonnie, sobbed uncontrollably.  She said the alleged abusers seemed like nice people.

Hawaii allows alleged sexual assault abuse victims to sue, even after the statute of limitations expires.

Wayne Goddard's lawyer, Allan Grodin, published the following statement to Variety "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."
