At first, Ratner wanted Kirk to sign a settlement agreement. Then, he told her that he would send her on auditions instead. Kirk responded: “You’re the one who wanted me to sign an agreement. Sending me on auditions is a step in the right direction but until it translates into what Kevin promised me then the issues remain unresolved.”

Ultimately, no settlement was ever signed. Kirk went on to be cast as Nicole Brown Simpson in a biopic titled Nicole & OJ, slated for release this year.

Speaking to the Mail Online about the scandal, Kirk said: “Kevin might have thought I was on his casting couch, but my sense of self-worth is such that I thought I was just having sex with a man I fancied. Like any normal woman, I kept on good terms and in touch afterwards.” She reiterated to The Hollywood Reporter that Tsujihara “never promised” her anything, and that she denied that there was “any inappropriate behaviour” on anyone’s part.
