‘Joyous and inclusive’ Rebel Wilson supported by ‘The Deb’ cast after defamation lawsuit by producers

Several cast and crew members from “The Deb” are supporting Rebel Wilson after the producers of the comedy musical sued her for defamation last week.

“With over 60 years of experience as a performer, but making my debut in film, I can say I’ve never been part of a more joyous and inclusive experience,” actor Dolores Dunbar said in an exclusive statement to Page Six. “Since then, I’ve shared with family and friends how, as a director, [Wilson] surpassed my expectations.”

“The Deb” serves as Wilson’s directorial debut. In an Instagram post from Tuesday, she said she “fought” to have the project greenlit.

“I found Rebel to be incredibly supportive and collaborative on set not only to myself, but also to those around me during filming and at all other times,” Shane Jacobson exclusively told Page Six of his experience working with the 44-year-old Australian comedian.

“I would be more than happy to put my hand up to be directed [by] Rebel Wilson again anytime in the future.”

Emmy-nominated composer Michael Yezerski described working with Wilson as “one of the great joys” of his career in his own exclusive statement to Page Six.

Several other cast members supported the “Pitch Perfect” star online by commenting under her recent Instagram posts.

“Myself and the rest of the crew are with you all the way. I’ve honestly never been on a production quite like The Deb,” production member Grace Hyde wrote under the star’s July 12 photo.

It’s the parlor game that’s obsessed London: Which royal invited Rebel Wilson to an orgy?

“We’ve all said what a special film it was to work on. Never once did I hear a bad comment from any of the cast or crew about their time working on it or with you.”

“Rebel you were nothing but professional, approachable and a great Director,” crew member Jane Dawkins added . “Treating everyone with respect and so generous with your time with having photo’s w everyone between scenes.”

On Friday, the film’s producers Amanda Ghost, Gregor Cameron and Vince Holden sued Wilson after she accused them of acting inappropriately on set and embezzling money from production.

In the official court filing, which was obtained by Page Six, the threesome claimed the actress made up lies about them after they denied her “unreasonable demands,” which included her desire to be awarded full writing credit for the screenplay. It was written Hannah Reilly, whom Wilson allegedly brought on board via a scholarship.

The plaintiffs’ lawyers declined to comment on the outpouring of support for Wilson.

Wilson hit back against her colleagues with several statements on Instagram once the complaint was filed.

In one post on her feed, she called the lawsuit “rubbish” and said her words are “not defamation if it’s the TRUTH.”

“So good luck f–kwit ‘producers trying to prove anything other than I’m a professional who did an amazing job as a first time female director!” she added on one of several slides she shared on her Instagram Story.
