In May 2025, the Forgetting Sarah Marshall actor pleaded not guilty to five initial charges - two counts of rape, one of indecent assault and two of sexual assault. And last month, the 50-year-old entered not guilty pleas to two additional charges: one count of rape and one count of sexual assault. During a hearing at Southwark Crown Court in London on Monday, Justice Joel Bennathan officially brought the two sets of charges together into one case. As a result, the trial is now expected to last two months instead of five weeks. Due to concerns about juror availability during the summer holidays, Bennathan decided to postpone the trial for four months from 16 June to 12 October.
