DID WARNER BROS. CEO EXCHANGE SEX FOR ROLES? Warner Bros. CEO Kevin Tsujihara had sex with a 21-year-old actress in a motel, promising her major movie roles in exchange, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The married 54-year-old reportedly ensnared Charlotte Kirk in 2013, promising her roles, but then reneged on the promise. According to texts obtained by the publication, Brett Ratner and James Packer were also involved, and at one point, Ratner allegedly responded to her via text, writing: “If you are going to be f***ing someone for a part it should be a director or a producer.” Kirk, when contacted by reporters, said in a statement: “I emphatically deny any inappropriate behavior on the part of Brett Ratner, James Packer, and Kevin Tsujihara, and I have no claims against any of them. I confirm that I was in a romantic relationship with James Packer in the summer of 2013 and that I was treated with respect by Mr. Packer, and I have no issues with him or claims against him.” She is reportedly believed to have been given a financial settlement in the case; she was also cast in a small role in Ocean’s 8.
