LOS ANGELES — Actress Bella Thorne accused co-star Mickey Rourke of misconduct during filming of 2020 thriller Girl alleging an on-set incident left her bruised and rattled. Claims shared via social media on April 11 2025 describe events on set in Oklahoma where Thorne alleges Rourke's actions caused significant distress somehow. Thorne 27 persists in acting and producing vigorously while Rourke 72 appears on Celebrity Big Brother UK garnering considerable attention lately. Allegations linger under intense scrutiny amidst rising safety concerns plaguing the industry.
Allegations Surface
Thorne detailed her traumatic experience in Instagram Stories and X posts claiming Rourke used a metal grinder on her pelvic area brutally instead of kneecap as scripted resulting in nasty bruises.“Working with Mickey was one of the all-time worst experiences of my life working as an actress,” she wrote. Working with Mickey was utterly disastrous an experience for her stint as an actress in her life's most hideous memories. She alleged Rourke humiliated her terribly by covering her in dirt during another chaotic scene and refused to talk to director forcing her alone in his trailer so filming could continue. Rourke's rep issued a statement denying intentional misconduct for Variety saying Mr. Rourke adamantly denies any wrongdoing whatsoever.
Industry Context and Response
Allegations surface under intensified scrutiny regarding on-set safety measures.65% of performers felt unsafe on set at some point according to a study done by Actors Equity Association back in 2021. Sarah Klein a labor attorney for entertainment industry folks told The Hollywood Reporter that incidents like these starkly highlight glaring enforcement gaps. Intimacy coordinators and clear reporting channels are critical for protecting performers meanwhile no probes or suspensions have been announced by production company officials. Thorne a former Disney Channel star known for Shake It Up has built quite a career in indie films and mental health advocacy lately. Rourke an Oscar nominee for “The Wrestler” has faced prior controversies including recent vitriol for comments on “Celebrity Big Brother UK” lately. “Girl” directed by Chad Faust follows young woman seeking vengeance in her hometown with Rourke playing sinister sheriff extremely effectively. Production wrapped up quietly in 2020 without major hiccups being reported at that particular juncture.
Background and Broader Implications
Thorne's posts allege Rourke's pretty erratic behavior on set caused a lot of discomfort.“I didn’t want to do it. I really didn't want doing it badly. She wrote on X that she felt pretty uneasy but did stuff that was requested and ostensibly best for the flick anyway. Industry experts note power dynamics frequently coerce actors into tolerating hazardous situations and thereby averting potentially calamitous project delays somehow.
Ongoing Developments
No formal investigations or legal actions have been confirmed as of April 12 2025 apparently. Thorne has not indicated plans to pursue litigation and Rourke's team has pledged full cooperation with forthcoming inquiries from various authorities suddenly. Allegations sparked heated discussions on X about accountability in Tinseltown with some folks clamoring for revised safety protocols instantly. Industry bodies like SAG-AFTRA may review such a case quietly though statements have not been officially issued yet by them. Observers anticipate more drama unfolding rapidly around Thorne and Rourke amidst swirling public scrutiny and professional repercussions affecting their future endeavors.
