A representative for actor Sacha Baron Cohen has described claims against him as "demonstrably false".

Rebel Wilson made allegations against the British comedy star in her memoir, Rebel Rising.

The Australian actress, 44, starred alongside Baron Cohen, 52, in the 2016 spy action comedy Grimsby, known as The Brothers Grimsby in the US, playing his on-screen girlfriend.

A representative for Baron Cohen told the PA news agency: "While we appreciate the importance of speaking out, these demonstrably false claims are directly contradicted by extensive detailed evidence, including contemporaneous documents, film footage, and eyewitness accounts from those present before, during and after the production of The Brothers Grimsby."

Baron Cohen's wife Isla Fisher also appears in the film, alongside Mark Strong, Penelope Cruz, Ricky Tomlinson and Johnny Vegas.
