Court Documents Link Rebel Wilson to Anonymous Websites Targeting Amanda Ghost
3 articles · Updated · The New York Times · Aug 25
Summary
New filings in Amanda Ghost’s defamation case appear to show Rebel Wilson ordered and paid for anonymous websites attacking the producer’s reputation.
Messages cited in Tuesday’s motion say Wilson asked about website text and payment, while publicist Melissa Nathan replied that the site would go live shortly and that a Daily Mail story had been taken down.
Wilson’s lawyer called the motion “one-sided and thus incomplete” and said the actress would present her account at trial.
The dispute grew out of 2024 conflict over Wilson’s directorial debut “The Deb,” after Wilson publicly accused Ghost and other producers of embezzlement and blocking the film’s Toronto festival debut.
Ghost then sued for defamation, while Wilson countersued over alleged embezzlement, breach of contract and sexual misconduct, turning the production fight into a broader court battle.
