LA County District Attorney George Gascón with a lawsuit over dismissed pedophile charges from a 2022 arrest.Gatt, 52, is seeking $40 million in damages after he was charged with engaging in “online sexually explicit communication with a minor across state lines” in a now-dismissed suit.In court documents filed in federal court in California on Thursday, Gatt claims the defendants “publicly branded him as a serial pedophile,” which had a negative knock-on effect on his career. “Gatt was immediately cancelled and what had previously been a burgeoning acting career was destroyed,” the lawsuit alleges. “Gatt’s agent and PR representatives dropped him immediately, he was fired from two different movies in which he had already been cast, and he was also recast in a third movie in which he had been hired to play the lead role.”The “Thor” actor also alleges Deputy District Attorney Angela Brunson held “personal bias and animosity” towards him — claiming she tried to “suborn perjury” to have Gatt’s $5,000 bail revoked.
