French actor Gerard Depardieu will face trial in October over allegations of sexual assault, the Paris prosecutor's office told CNN Monday.
The assaults were allegedly committed against two people in September 2021 during the shooting of the film Les Volets Verts, the prosecutor's office added without identifying them.
The actor is also being formally investigated on suspicion of rape and sexual assault allegedly committed in August 2018 against actress Charlotte Arnould, the prosecutor's office said.
Depardieu has previously been placed under formal investigation for alleged rape and sexual assault after a number of women filed complaints against him. The French actor has denied all accusations against him.
CNN has reached out to his lawyer for comment regarding the trial. Earlier on Monday, his lawyer told CNN the actor had been taken into police custody in Paris to face questioning.
Depardieu presented himself at a police station in Paris on Monday morning, according to BFMTV, and was questioned over accusations of sexual assault alleged to have taken place on film sets.
Depardieu is known for his roles in films like Green Card, The Man in the Iron Mask and Life of Pi.
He was also nominated for an Oscar in 1991 for his leading role in Cyrano de Bergerac.
In 2013, Depardieu was granted Russian citizenship by Vladimir Putin after saying he was going to give up his French passport in protest at government plans for a tax hike on the richest.
