Bey Logan, who worked as Asia Vice President at The Weinstein Company has been accused of sexually inappropriate behavior, according to a local Hong Kong investigative news report, The Hollywood Reporter said.

In an exposé from Hong Kong investigative news site “HK01” published on Wednesday, seven women accused the close associate of Weinstein of sexually inappropriate behavior.

The Logan report is part of a three-part investigation by writer Selina Cheng on sexual harassment in the Hong Kong entertainment industry. 

A British-born martial-arts enthusiast, Logan moved to Asia in the 1990s in the hopes of breaking into the Hong Kong film industry. Logan worked on a number of local films in the 2000s, before working for The Weinstein Company from 2005 to 2009 as Asia VP.  Since 2009, Logan has worked occasionally with Weinstein, co-producing 2016's “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: The Sword of Destiny” and has often accompanied the producer on his visits to Hong Kong, Beijing and other Asian cities.

Among the seven women making allegations against Logan is Indonesian-Chinese actress Sable Yu, who starred in the unfinished Logan-produced film “Snowblade.”  

In 2011, Yu was the lead actress in the film Logan described as a genre film involving "martial arts, violence, and nudity."

According to the Hollywood Reporter Yu told “HK01” in an on-camera interview that Logan made her strip to her underwear on a daily basis so that he could inspect her body "for whether or not she had gained weight," apparently due to the amount of nudity the film required.

Yu said that Logan, whose wife is a lawyer, habitually threatened her with legal action when she tried to quit the film due to the psychological pressure.

Logan apparently also exposed himself to her, she said.

Yu also told “HK01” that she was traumatized by the Snowblade experience and that she's still seeking help from both a psychologist and a psychiatrist to this day. 

But she was not alone in her experience. The HK01 report includes six other women who reveal their encounters with Logan that veered toward either the sexually inappropriate or direct harassment. One of them, an Australian-Chinese actress based in Beijing, who chose to remain anonymous, said she worked as Logan's interpreter on the set of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: The Sword of Destiny" in the Chinese capital in 2015. After a 20-hour day working on the Great Wall of China, Logan offered up his hotel room to the actress for a short rest, as she was not allocated one due to her Beijing residence.

The actress recalls being woken up by Logan's presence in the bed trying to make advances towards her. The actress said she immediately left the hotel after saying no to Logan.

Another woman, who also wished to keep her identity private, and who also experienced an "unpleasant" meeting with Harvey Weinstein, tells of the time when she and Logan were on location in Foshan, China. The women told “HK01“ that Logan forcibly kissed her and pinned her down on the bed in her hotel room. She eventually escaped by answering a phone call.

Logan's "Snowblade"  was halted and left unfinished in 2011 after the main investor pulled out. However, from 2012 until early 2017, Logan continued to host casting sessions for the female lead of the film. Allegedly, according to five women who attended the casting sessions and who spoke with HK01, he would often ask them to be half or fully nude. 

According to "HK01," Logan said in a telephone interview, "The complaints that you have… is the things that I tried to do, rather than anything that actually happened."

"HK01," said in the same telephone interview, Logan described Yu as "crazy" and that he had "too many girlfriends." "I had consensual relationships with girls who perhaps fell in love with me and, you know, I wasn't being serious, that kind of thing, which I think is quite common," he said. 

Logan later sent "HK01" a written statement saying, "I regret that any actions I might have taken could have caused distress to anyone. I was insensitive because my position and the industry's culture had allowed me to consider my behavior then acceptable."

Logan also wrote that "most of the accusations now made and elicited in this article are either untrue or taken out of context... I categorically deny any criminal wrongdoing," he wrote.

"I will now step back and take time to reflect on my behavior and the values which I should uphold," he added.
