Jimmy Bennett: This is the man behind the allegations against Asia Argento
It's certainly not an event Jimmy Bennett would like to see in the press. It is about the sexual abuse of a minor and the young actor is the victim. At just 17 years old, the 20 year older Italian actress Asia Argento is said to have raped him. The incident took place in 2013, but only now hits big waves. According to the New York Times, based on court documents, a hush of $ 380,000 is said to have been agreed - just weeks after Argento's allegations against Harvey Weinstein (66) were heard.
No wonder Jimmy Bennett, whose real name is James Michael Bennett, is now on everyone's lips. With his career, the native-born American has so far not cause such a big press fuss. And that, although Bennett has been acting since childhood. He got his first role in 2003 at the age of seven. He played one of the children in "The Kindergarten Daddy" alongside Eddie Murphy (57). In "Hostage - Abducted," he appeared in 2005 alongside Bruce Willis, 63, in "Amityville Horror - A True Story," alongside Ryan Reynolds, 41. A year later, he was seen alongside Harrison Ford (76) in "Firewall" on the screen. Bennett has also starred in the series Bones, Perception and My Superhero Family. His most recent role was in the romantic thriller "Heartthrob".
