Disney ‘holds crisis talks' over Jared Leto accusations that threaten to derail big budget blockbuster

Disney has found itself scrambling to organise the promotion of Jared Leto's new movie amid historic claims of sexual impropriety, an insider has exclusively told The U.S. Sun. Leto, 53, has been accused by nine women, including some who were teenagers at the time. He has strongly denied all accusations. Model Laura La Rue was among the accusers who said she was just 16 when the star, then 36, began flirting through messages and once emerged from a room at his house naked, according to an AirMail report in early June. Recalling the alleged experience at his house, she said, 'I thought maybe this was just what adult men do.' Leto's reps denied any wrongdoing, saying, 'Their communications contain nothing sexual or inappropriate and Ms La Rue later applied to work as his personal assistant.' La Rue denied she ever applied for the job, according to AirMail. He is not being sued or charged with any crime, but the report has thrown a wrench in the works when it comes to promoting his latest films. The Oscar-winning actor has two big-budget films being released in the coming months at Disney and Amazon MGM, Tron: Ares and Masters of the Universe. Ahead of Tron's release in October, Disney is scheduled to host a panel at San Diego ComicCon at the end of July, The Wrap reported, although it's not known whether or not Leto will appear on it. 'Jared wants it to be business as usual ahead of the release of his new movie, but Disney is nervous about the promotion of Tron,' an insider exclusively told The U.S. Sun. 'The accusations of sexual misconduct couldn't have come at a worse time. 'The marketing team has been having crisis meetings ahead of its theatrical release in October. 'Disney is planning to host a panel at San Diego ComicCon to push Tron: Ares and Jared has made it known that he's happy to be on it. 'He doesn't want to hide away having denied the allegations and not only is he the lead, he's one of the producers. 'Talks are still ongoing about how to handle the situation, but he will likely take part in some capacity and hold his head high. 'He is not being sued civilly and he isn't being charged with a crime, if he were I think things would be a lot different.' Leto took to the stage to speak about Tron: Ares during CinemaCon 2025 in Las Vegas on April 3, 2025, just two months before the report was published by AirMail. One woman speaking to the outlet claimed his behaviour 'has been an open secret for a long time.' The U.S. Sun's source added, 'Disney may still have to cut its losses on this one but will still do what it can to promote the movie and create a buzz.' Neither Disney nor a representative for Leto responded to a request for comment. San Diego Comic-Con runs from July 24 to 27. Tron is scheduled to be released in theatres on October 10. The movie also stars Jodie Turner-Smith, Greta Lee, Cameron Monaghan, and Jeff Bridges. And although a big-budget movie usually comes with TV and print interview slots for its lead star and a social media push, there has been no marketing since the initial trailer was released in April. Leto is also set to appear in Masters of the Universe, which is scheduled for release in June 2026, although he is not the lead character in the live-action feature film. The actor has been cast as Skeletor, the primary antagonist to Nicholas Galitzine's He-Man, according to reports.
