Stranger Things star ditches agent after sexual assault claims
By Jeremy Dick
After sexual assault allegations befell the agent of Stranger Things star Finn Wolfhard, the young actor has given him the boot to find a new agency.
Finn Wolfhard is looking for a new agent!
According to Deadline, APA agent Tyler Grasham is finding himself in some serious hot water. Two men have come forward accusing Grasham of sexual assault, which you’ll know is something taken very seriously these days if you’ve been watching the news. The APA has since launched an internal investigation into Grasham in the wake of these claims.
As you can probably surmise, Grasham was the agent for Finn Wolfhard of Stranger Things and the massively successful IT movie. Not anymore, though. As soon as he was made aware of the allegations, Wolfhard severed ties with Grasham immediately, ultimately leaving the APA entirely.
The first accusation came from former child actor Blaise Godbe Lipman on Facebook, who claims Grasham sexually assaulted him ten years ago. TV editor Lucas Ozarowski then came forward with a similar story, and added that he has contacted a lawyer and was going to fill out a report with the LAPD.
Not knowing the full details yet of the accusations against Grasham, I can’t really comment on it too much yet. But at the very least it’s worthy of an investigation. Of course, more victims of this kind of thing are coming are coming forward after the almighty Harvey Weinstein just had his fall from grace. Around 50 women have now accused Weinstein of sexual harassment or assault, resulting in Weinstein being booted from The Weinstein Company.
