A French judge has ordered actor Gérard Depardieu to stand trial in criminal court on rape charges, following complaints by actress Charlotte Arnould, as reported by French media. The decision comes seven years after Arnould first filed an official rape complaint. The actress, whose father was a longtime friend of Depardieu, claims he raped and sexually assaulted her twice at his Paris residence in summer 2018, after she visited him seeking professional acting advice.
