Actress Charlotte Kirk claims in a recently filed lawsuit she had non-consensual sex under duress with former Warner Bros. Chairman and CEO Kevin Tsujihara because she feared for her safety and career, according to a new report.

Tsujihara stepped down last year after it was revealed through a series of text messages that he allegedly promised Kirk acting roles and auditions in exchange for a sexual relationship. He has denied it was non-consensual.

`Charlotte Kirk, Kevin Tsujihara and a Non-Consensual Sex Allegation That Sparked a Secret Legal Saga,` which indicated Kirk has `filed an explosive petition to vacate a gag order that has kept her mostly silent amid a years-long battle` with the former Warner Bros. honcho and associates.

Tatiana Siegel wrote that Kirk filed the petition against Tsujihara and movie moguls James Packer, Brett Ratner and Avi Lerner on Sept. 3 in Los Angeles Superior Court with pseudonyms being used for the five key players.

`The petition, which is under conditional seal but has been viewed , is aiming to vacate a gag order that has kept Kirk mostly silent amid a years-long legal saga involving some of Hollywood's most prominent litigators. At the crux of the battle is an incident that took place at the Hotel Bel-Air the night of Sept. 26, 2013, and Kirk's ability to speak freely about it,` Siegel wrote.
