'Underworld' actress Kate Beckinsale has addressed fan speculation about a 'drunk' co-star she mentioned in a recent Instagram video detailing her experiences with on-set harassment.

AceShowbiz - Following Blake Lively's complaints against her "It Ends With Us" co-star and director Justin Baldoni, Kate Beckinsale shared several harrowing anecdotes, including one about a male actor who was "drunk every day" and caused significant delays.

"I was waiting, as was the crew, for six hours a day for him to learn his lines," Beckinsale said. "The studio's response was to give me a bike so I could ride around the studio lot while I was waiting. And then, of course, I was called a c*** and a b****."

Fans quickly began speculating about the identity of the actor, with names like Ben Affleck (her "Pearl Harbor" co-star) and Colin Farrell (her "Total Recall" co-star) circulating.

However, Beckinsale swiftly denied these claims. "Ben Affleck protected me on an extremely toxic film set and could not have behaved more respectably," she stated. "I am not going to go into any more specific detail on who it was or wasn't because frankly the most problematic part has actually not been the actors, it has been that reporting a problem or an abuse has resulted in a greater punishment than one could ever imagine."

Beckinsale emphasized the importance of speaking out against such behavior, highlighting the systemic issues within the industry that often silence victims.

She described an incident where a co-star became physically aggressive, causing her injury and fear. "Everybody was incredibly concerned, shut the set down for several hours," she recalled. "As soon as I called the head of the studio…everything flipped and I was punished, ostracized."

Beckinsale also denied that she was referring to Colin Farrell, insisting, "I emphatically am not."
