Actor Rebel Wilson has adopted a ‘no a**holes policy’, and it’s something we can all get on board with.

Rebel’s reasons for putting this into place, though, might shock you.

The 44-year-old Pitch Perfect star has opened up about her experiences in the film industry in her upcoming memoir, Rebel Rising.

While it was probably very cathartic for Rebel to be able to confront her experiences head-on, it seems not everybody gave her their support.

It turns out that the ‘a**hole’ in question is an actor Rebel has previously worked with, and after learning that she has written a chapter about her bad experience with him, allegedly tried to threaten her with legal action.

Rebel took to her Instagram Story to share what was happening.

While she refrained from naming her co-star on Instagram at the time, she wrote: "Now the a**hole is trying to threaten me.

"He’s hired a crisis PR manager and lawyers. He’s trying to stop press coming out about my new book."

She concluded: “The book WILL come out and you will all know the truth.”

Rebel Wilson said she will spill the tea in chapter 23 of Rebel Rising.

In an earlier Instagram post on 15 March, Rebel posted a video that delved into the situation a little bit more and explained her ‘no a**holes’ policy.

She said: “When I first came to Hollywood, people were like, ‘Yeah, I have a no-a**holes policy that means, like, I don’t work with a**holes’.

“I was like, ‘Yeah, I mean, that sounds sensible and logical.’

“But then it really sunk in what they were meaning by that, older people in the industry. Because I worked with a massive a**hole, and, yeah, now I definitely have an a**holes policy.

“Chapter on said a**hole - it is chapter 23, that guy was a massive a**hole.”

It has since been confirmed by Rebel that the person she is referring to is Sacha Baron-Cohen.

Taking to Instagram once again to confront the issue head-on, Rebel wrote: “I will not be bullied or silenced by high priced lawyers or PR crisis managers.

"The “a**hole” that I am talking about in ONE CHAPTER of my book is: Sacha Baron Cohen.”

Rebel and Sacha worked together in Grimsby, a 2016 comedy film.

She was cast as the girlfriend of Sacha's character, Nobby.

Sacha has not yet publicly addressed Rebel's claims.

It has been reported that Rebel is working ‘7 days a week’ as she writes her book, filming an action movie in Savannah and directing a film in Australia.

Fans are clearly excited for Rebel Rising to hit the shelves.

One wrote on Instagram: “Pre ordered the book yesterday!”

Another added: “When I get the book, I may read that specific chapter first as you have intrigued me now.”

A third said: "Can’t wait."

Tyla has reached out to representatives of Rebel Wilson and Sacha Baron-Cohen for comment.

Rebel's book is available to pre-order on Amazon now.
