Now, the 81-year-old is in the news again with reports that his new movie contains scenes involving an older man having sex with young starlets.

“We’re told that a plotline in the untitled Allen flick, which is currently filming in New York, centers around a middle-aged man who is sleeping with a much younger woman, among other actresses, and, according to the script, ‘makes a fool of himself over every ambitious starlet and model,'” the New York Post reports.

In scenes just filmed, a character played by Rebecca Hall accuses 44-year-old actor Jude Law’s character of having sex with a 15-year-old “concubine.” In the scene, the so-called concubine — played by Elle Fanning (19 in real life) — acknowledges her relationship with Law’s much-older character, but then protests that she is 21 years old. After a discussion about his infidelity, Fanning’s character then asks Law, “Were all these women for pleasure, or were you researching a project?” …

The plot seems perversely timed, given the mounting allegations of sexual harassment and rape against Weinstein. In a further poignant play — since Allen has faced his own allegations of sexual misconduct (which he has strenuously denied) — the director himself recently became entangled in the Weinstein scandal.

The famed film director was roundly hammered this month after he said he felt “sad for Harvey that his life is so messed up.”

Allen has faced his own sex charges. He was accused of sexually abusing his own daughter, Dylan Farrow. During Allen’s messy split from Mia Farrow, Dylan alleged that she was abused when she was seven years old. While Allen was never criminally charged, presiding Justice Elliott Wilk wrote about the case that “credible testimony … prove[s] that Mr. Allen’s behavior toward Dylan was grossly inappropriate and that measures must be taken to protect her.”

Allen, 81, has been super creepy for years. After dating Farrow for a decade, the actress in 1992 found nude pictures of her then-21-year-old adopted daughter, Soon-Yi Previn, taken by Allen. The couple split, and Previn, 46, and Allen are now married.

In a weird coincidence, Allen’s own son, Ronan Farrow, is one of the reporters who investigated Weinstein for a major breaking story, speaking to 13 women who said the Hollywood producer had sexually harassed or assaulted them.

Allen said he had no idea about Weinstein, despite working with him on several films.

“No one ever came to me or told me horror stories with any real seriousness,” Allen told the BBC. “And they wouldn’t, because you are not interested in it. You are interested in making your movie.”
