Charisma Carpenter, star of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”, accused the creator and director Joss Whedon of exhibiting abusive behavior on the set. Michelle Trachtenberg also claims that Whedon ‘was not appropriate’ when she was a teenager on the series.
Fans are now asking David Boreanaz, 51, and Alyson Hannigan, 46, to speak their truth about the matter.
“The silence of David Boreanaz and Alyson Hannigan is deafening,” tweeted a fan, with another note, “Alyson Hannigan- Silent. David Boreanaz- Silent. Anthony Stewart Head- says he saw nothing. Sarah Michelle Gellar- Says she is supportive and condemns the abuse. Eliza Dushku- saw nothing but showing solidarity. Convincing things. “
Boreanaz also decided to clean up his Instagram this week and now has only one photo of his father, Dave Roberts.
The “Bring It On” star Dushku is the latest “Buffy” alumnus to express support for Carpenter.
“CC, my heart hurts for you and I’m sorry that you have been holding this for so long,” wrote Dushku, who is well aware of workplace harassment battles on Instagram. “Your post was powerful, painful and painted a picture that we’ll never stop seeing or knowing collectively.”
