Robert Knepper Keeps His 'iZombie' Job
by EG
Robert Knepper, who plays Angus DeBeers on The CW's iZombie, has been cleared to continue working on the series following allegations that he sexually assaulted a co-worker decades ago on the set of a movie. An investigation by Warner Bros. turned up no evidence of misconduct by Knepper on the set of iZombie, according to the company, and he will be allowed to continue working on the series. Warner's statement, however, did not dispute the allegations of earlier misbehavior.

Warner Bros. has conducted a misconduct investigation into “iZombie” star Robert Knepper and found no evidence of misdeeds on the set of the DC Comics-inspired drama.
“We were deeply concerned about recent allegations regarding Robert Knepper,” said Warner Bros. TV in a statement to Variety.
“As a result, we conducted an internal inquiry with some of the cast and crew of iZOMBIE. We found no evidence of wrongdoing on the set of the show. We have taken and will continue to take appropriate measures to ensure the safety and well-being of all involved, which is our top priority.”
Knepper, also known for his role on Fox’s “Prison Break” was accused of sexual assault by a veteran costume designer in a report last month in the Hollywood Reporter.
