Hilary Swank stunned that 'Million Dollar Baby' writer Paul Haggis accused by 4 women of sexual assault
Paul Haggis
âI havenât seen that  no â the stunned Swank told Fox News at an FX event in Pasadena  Calif. of the report released just minutes earlier about  Paul Haggis   who won consecutive Oscars for screenwriting the Swank-starring "Million Dollar Baby" and writing and directing "Crash."
 Haggis  was named in a civil lawsuit on December 15  2017 by publicist Haleigh Breest  who claimed the married  64-year-old filmmaker raped her on Jan. 31  2013 in a New York City apartment.
The lawsuit spurred three more women to claim sexual assault and harassment by  Haggis .
According to the Associated Press  one of the accusers claimed  Haggis  made  her  perform non-consensual oral sex and then raped  her .
Another accuser said  Haggis  told  her  âI need to be inside  you .â  She  said  she  was able to escape.
They all said  Haggis  first tried to kiss them. In two of the cases  they said  when they fought back   Haggis  escalated  his  aggression.
The new rape accuser said she was a 28-year-old publicist working on a television show being produced by  Haggis  in 1996 when he called to ask to review photos from the show that night in her office.
When  Haggis  arrived  she said  everyone else had left the office for the night and  he  insisted they speak in a back office. She said  Haggis  began kissing her as soon as they walked into the room.
"I just pulled away.  He  was just glaring at me and came at me again. I was really resisting.  He  said to me  'Do you really want to continue working?'" the woman said. "And then  he  really forced  himself  on me. I was just numb. I didn't know what to do."
 Haggis â lawyer told the AP his client is denying the new accusations  saying  âHe didnât rape anybody.â
 Haggis  has also denied Breest's initial rape allegation in a counter-complaint to the lawsuit  and said the accuser and her lawyer had demanded a $9 million payment to avoid legal action  which he characterized as extortion.
Fox News reached out to  Haggis  and Breest but did not receive comment.
 Haggis  is also well-known for being an outspoken critic of Scientology  which  he  left in 2009.  He  is listed as currently directing the film "Lead and Copper."
