LOS ANGELES (KNX) – Actor Frank Langella was fired from the Netflix show “The Fall of the House of Usher” following an investigation into accusations made against the actor.

Sources reported to Deadline that Langella “had been involved in unacceptable conduct on set” and that the actor was fired.


Langella was accused of sexual harassment on set, including touching an actress’ leg and asking her jokingly, “Did you like that?”

In another incident, the actor allegedly made a joke with “sexual overtones”, TMZ reported.

The show, which was halfway through production, will recast Langella and reshoot scenes he had already filmed, according to Deadline.

Langella nor his reps have released a statement at this time.

Netflix has declined to comment, but confirmed Langella’s firing to multiple outlets.
