Coppola Faces Misconduct Allegations on 'Megalopolis' Set
News summary

Francis Ford Coppola, the acclaimed director of 'The Godfather,' is embroiled in controversy after footage surfaced showing him attempting to kiss young, scantily clad female extras on the set of his upcoming film 'Megalopolis.' The videos, captured during a nightclub scene in February 2023, show Coppola navigating a crowded dance floor, holding women by their arms, and trying to kiss them. Sources allege that Coppola acted with impunity, disrupting scenes and making inappropriate remarks over a microphone. Despite some crew members defending his actions as attempts to 'establish the spirit of the scene,' the allegations have cast a shadow over the film’s anticipated release on September 27. Coppola self-funded the $120 million project, leaving no traditional HR mechanisms for complaints, further complicating the situation.
