Andy Dick Dropped From Film ‘Raising Buchanan’ Over Sexual Harassment Claims

Andy Dick is the latest Hollywood celebrity to be accused of sexual harassment.

Andy Dick Sexual Harassment Claims

The 51-year-old actor and comedian has been fired from the independent feature film Raising Buchanan after allegations of his unsolicited sexual advances against women.

Though none of the alleged victims have described the incidents, two sources described Dick’s misconduct, which included groping people’s genitals, unwanted kissing/licking and sexual propositions of at least four members of the production. It remains unknown whether these individuals were cast or crew members.

Dick, who has a small role in Raising Buchanan, has denied the groping accusations. However, he admitted to licking people. “I might have kissed somebody on the cheek to say goodbye and then licked them. That’s my thing,” he said. “It’s me being funny. I’m not trying to sexually harass people.”

The claims against Dick follow the long list of women who have accused producer Harvey Weinstein, director James Toback, Amazon executive Roy Price, former Fox News anchor Bill O’Reilly, and several other powerful men of sexual abuse. The number of women to speak out against Weinstein has reached past 50.

“I don’t grope people anymore,” Dick told The Hollywood Reporter. “I don’t expose myself anymore. I do understand that the temperature in the world right now is delicate.”

Dick has made two films with Weinstein.

Written and directed by Bruce Dellis, Raising Buchanan stars Rene Auberjonois, Amanda Melby, Shannon Whirry and M. Emmet Walsh in the story of a woman who steals the corpse of former U.S. President James Buchanan (Auberjonois) hoping to land a ransom, but it seems that nobody is interested in getting the body back.

Dick has been to rehab multiple times and has been very open about his battle with substance abuse.
