Rebel Wilson's directorial debut, The Deb, faces legal challenges in Australia. AI Film accuses Wilson of intentionally sabotaging the film's release, alleging threats and defamatory claims that harmed the company financially and reputationally. The lawsuit claims Wilson aimed to devalue the production to pressure the companies into selling their stakes to her own company, Camp Sugar.

The court found her allegations unprotected under anti-SLAPP laws after a lead actor stated that Wilson's claims were false and fabricated.
