“The Rip” director Joe Carnahan has been accused of sexual battery in a lawsuit filed by an ex-girlfriend.
Carnahan was accused of sexual battery, assault and stalking by Michelle Crosby – who he first met in 2020 and began dating shortly after until it ended in 2024.
The lawsuit, which was obtained by TheWrap, alleges the director physically attacked her numerous times during their relationship.
Crosby’s suit claims sexual battery, assault, stalking and breach of contract over promises that she and Carnahan would start a production company together.
These new claims come in a cross-complaint filed in Los Angeles Superior Court following a lawsuit filed by Carnahan over a Porsche he let Crosby borrow.
