Steven Seagal stood up and walked out of a live interview Thursday night after he was confronted by the host with the several rap and sexual misconduct allegations that have been brought up against him in the past.
While appearing as a guest on BBC's "Newsnight" on Thursday, Seagal was asked by the host, Kristy Wark, how the #MeToo movement in Hollywood has personally impacted him.
"You've been very much caught up in all the allegations of sexual harassment," Wark said to the actor. "You had a rape allegation against you and I wonder how you deal with all that?"
Seagal didn't say a word and just pulled out his earpiece, leaving the studio.
Seagal is one of several men in Hollywood who have had allegations brought up against them. He's been accused of harassment and misconduct by actresses Julianna Margulies, Jenny McCarthy, and Katherine Heigl, as well as "Inside Edition" correspondent Lisa Guerrero.
Seagal has denied all allegations against him.
The 66-year-old actor was most recently accused of rape by Regina Simons, who appeared as an extra in the 1994 film, "On Deadly ground." Simons told The Wrap in 2017 that she had been raped by the star in 1993 at a wrap party which took place at Seagal's Beverly Hills home.
Jenny McCarthy leveled her own accusations against the star a few months later, saying that Seagal had asked her to strip during an audition for the film "Under Siege 2" in 1998. Seagal's spokesperson at the time called McCarthy's allegations untrue, saying the actress "never audition[ed]" for the role.
