Bryan Singer is facing a lawsuit that alleges he raped a 17-year-old boy back in 2003.
For the damage done to Singer’s reputation as a result of the allegations, Herman paid over $1 million to Singer and others.
The lawyer who represented Egan, Jeff Herman, eventually even apologized to Singer for taking a case that proved to have such a lack of evidence.
The X-Men director had already lost his position working on the Bohemian Rhapsody movie, though Singer claims he stepped down from that role due to one of his parents becoming sick.
