NextImg:Gérard Depardieu Convicted of Sexual Assault

The French movie star Gérard Depardieu was convicted by a Paris court on Tuesday on charges of sexually assaulting two women working on the set of a film in which he was starring in 2021.

The prosecutor had requested an 18-month suspended sentence and a fine of 20,000 euros, or about $22,200, after a four-day trial at the end of March.

The women — a set decorator and an assistant director — worked on “Les Volets Verts,” a 2021 French film starring Mr. Depardieu.

The set decorator, now 54, who has only agreed to be identified publicly by her first name, Amélie, said Mr. Depardieu grabbed her by her waist and pulled her toward him while he was sitting down. Then he locked her between his legs and ran his hands over her buttocks, genitals and breasts while muttering obscenities, she said.

The assistant director, now 34, said that the actor touched her breasts and buttocks on three occasions as she walked him from his dressing room to the set in Paris. She has not agreed to be identified publicly.

Mr. Depardieu, 76, denied the sexual assaults in both cases, though his story regarding the set decorator shifted.
