Several other people involved in Megalopolis’s production have come forward to defend Coppola. Executive Producer Darren Demetre gave a statement declaring that he’s worked with Coppola for “over 35 years” and never heard any mention of the director harassing anyone on the Megalopolis set. Demetre went on to explain the situation in Variety’s accusations against Francis Ford Coppola from his point of view.
According to Demetre, Francis Ford Coppola shot a “celebratory Studio 54-esque club scene” on the Megalopolis set for two days. During the filming, Demetre claims the director would walk around the set, giving “hugs and kisses on the cheek” to extras to establish a “club atmosphere.” Meanwhile, one of the extras in the Variety videos came out and said the situation was misrepresented.
