Mia Goth Fears On-Set Assailant, Seeks Remote Deposition

Mia Goth has submitted a declaration to a judge, asking that her deposition in an ongoing lawsuit be conducted via videoconference rather than in person. This request stems from her fear of James Hunter, an extra on the 2024 horror film "Maxxxine," who is suing Goth for allegedly kicking him in the head and following him into a bathroom during filming.

Goth stated that she is concerned the accuser's interest in her extends beyond the litigation, especially after learning he attempted to obtain details about her home, causing her significant worry about privacy. The actress also noted that Hunter previously had a restraining order filed against him by another party, further contributing to her apprehension.

Hunter's lawsuit claims Goth kicked him while he was on the ground, bleeding, despite being warned she was getting too close. He alleges she taunted him afterward and is seeking over $500,000 in damages. Goth has consistently denied all allegations of wrongdoing.
