“We are obviously very troubled by the allegations about Louis C.K. published in The New York Timestoday. The network has received no allegations of misconduct by Louis C.K. related to any of our 5 shows produced together over the past 8 years. FX Networks and FXP take all necessary actions to protect our employees and thoroughly investigate any allegations of misconduct within our workplace. That said, the matter is currently under review.”
Earlier Thursday, the premiere for C.K.'s upcoming film, I Love You, Daddy, was canceled ahead of the New York Times' story, with the indie's distributor, The Orchard, revealing that the release plan for the film was being reviewed.
“In light of the allegations concerning Louis C.K. referenced in today’s New York Times, we are cancelling tonight’s premiere of I Love You, Daddy," the statement read. "There is never a place for the behavior detailed in these allegations. As a result, we are giving careful consideration to the timing and release of the film and continuing to review the situation.”
C.K. was also scheduled to appear on The Late Show with Stephen Colberton Thursday night before canceling his appearance, with William H. Macy now set to replace him as a guest, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Allegations against C.K. come on the heels of accusations of sexual misconduct leveled against a number of high-profile Hollywood figures including Harvey Weinstein, James Toback, Kevin Spacey, Roy Price, Brett Ratner, Ed Westwick, Steven Seagal, and Jeffrey Tambor. Hours after the C.K. report broke, an allegation of harassment against Mad Mencreator Matthew Weiner also surfaced.
