Rebel Wilson has made yet another shocking claim about Sacha Baron Cohen and how he apparently used to humiliate her on set.

Wilson made all the headlines on Tuesday (26 March) for claims she made about Cohen, which she had made previously without identifying the ‘a***hole’ in question.

She said in an Instagram story posted on March 15: “When I first came to Hollywood, people were like, yeah, ‘I have a no a**hole policy, [it] means like, yeah, I don’t work with a**holes.’ I was like, ‘oh yeah. I mean, that sounds sensible or logical.

“But then it really sunk in [what they, the older people in the industry, meant] because I worked with a massive a**hole and yeah, now I definitely have a no a**holes policy.

“The chapter on said a**hole is chapter 23. That guy was a massive a**hole.”

The Borat star and Wilson worked together on 2016 film, The Brothers Grimsby.

In a later Instagram story, Wilson said that it was Cohen who she was talking about.

“I will not be bullied or silenced by high priced lawyers or PR crisis managers. "The 'a**hole' that I am talking about in ONE CHAPTER of my book is: Sacha Baron Cohen,” she wrote on her story.

Wilson has also spoke about her relationship with Cohen in her new memoir, Rebel Rising.

Recalling the time when they began filming on The Brothers Grimsby, Wilson said: "It felt like every time I’d speak to SBC, he’d mention that he wanted me to go naked in a future scene. I was like, ‘Ha, I don’t do nudity, Sacha.’"

And when they were filming one day at a soccer stadium in Cape Town, Wilson claims: "SBC summons me via a production assistant saying that I’m needed to film an additional scene. ‘Okay, well, we’re gonna film this extra scene,’ SBC says. Then he pulls his pants down ... SBC says very matter-of-factly: ‘Okay, now I want you to stick your finger up my ass.’ And I’m like, ‘What?? ... No!!’ ...”

Baron Cohen has flat out denied saying this, as well as mistreating Wilson and pressuring her to go naked.

When approached by UNILAD to comment on the ongoing situation, a spokesperson for Baron Cohen said: "While we appreciate the importance of speaking out, these demonstrably false claims are directly contradicted by extensive detailed evidence, including contemporaneous documents, film footage, and eyewitness accounts from those present before, during and after the production of The Brothers Grimsby."
