Asia Argento has threatened to take “immediate legal action” against Rose McGowan unless the latter retracts a statement she made on 27 August following accusations of sexual assault against Argento by actor Jimmy Bennett.
Argento posted a statement on social media demanding that within 24 hours McGowan retract the “horrendous lies” she claimed were contained in the statement.
“If you fail to address this libel I will have no option other than to take immediate legal action.”
The statement to which Argento refers was issued seven days later.
