A top Amazon Studios executive has been suspended after a Hollywood producer publicly accused him of making unwanted sexual advances.

Roy Price, credited as turning Amazon’s original movies and television shows into an entertainment force rivalling Netflix, was accused by Isa Hackett of sexual harassment.

In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Hackett — who acts as executive producer on the Amazon series The Man in the High Castle and daughter of author Philip K Dick — claimed Price repeatedly made advances at San Diego Comic-Con.

The report details how, on the 10 July, 2015, after promoting their series at the convention, Price invited Hackett to an Amazon staff party at a hotel. During the taxi ride, Price insistently propositioned her, saying: “You will love my dick.”

When they arrived at the party, Price approached Hackett while she was talking to fellow executives and shouted “Anal Sex!” directly into her ear.

Amazon suspended Price after the allegations were made public, a spokesperson saying: “Roy Price is on leave of absence effective immediately.”

Before the suspension, the company told THR: "We take seriously any questions about the conduct of our employees.

“We expect people to set high standards for themselves; we encourage people to raise any concerns and we make it a priority to investigate and address them. Accordingly, we looked closely at this specific concern and addressed it directly with those involved.”

The allegations against Price came in the wake of multiple actors speaking out against Harvey Weinstein, the former mogul who has been accused of sexual harassment.

Angelina Jolie, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Kate Beckinsale have publicly spoken out against Weinstein among many more.
