On Thursday, it came to light that eight women have accused actor Morgan Freeman of sexual harassment and inappropriate behaviour. 

CNN reported that the behaviour was allegedly towards female members of on-set production staff and reporters.

One alleged that Freeman often touched her without permission and made comments about her appearance.

“It was constant comments about the way I looked,” she told CNN.

Another woman claims that that actor tried to lift her skirt up and asked her if she was wearing underwear. 

In a statement to People, Freeman said:

'Anyone who knows me or has worked with me knows I am not someone who would intentionally offend or knowingly make anyone feel uneasy.' 

'I apologize to anyone who felt uncomfortable or disrespected — that was never my intent.'

Our dreams are coming true! 

Keira Knightley is set to star in the upcoming live-action Disney production of The Nutcracker, taking on the role of The Sugar Plum Fairy. 

It is not yet known whether Keira will be performing the iconic dance associated with her role, which first appeared in Tchaikovsky's 1892 ballet. 

However, if she is required to dance, she will be in the best possible company.

According to BBC, the film cast will include Misty Copeland, who last year became the American Ballet's principal dancer.

Morgan Freeman is also set to star in the feature film (YAY!) playing Drosselmeyer, a mysterious magician-like figure, who is the godfather of the main character. 

Alongside Keira, Morgan and Misty, will be Mackenzie Foy, who rose to fame back in 2012 for her portrayal of Renesmee Cullen in The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2. 

The Disney film will be directed by Lasse Hallstrom, best known for directing Chocolat. 

There is no official release date for The Nutcracker and the Four Realms, but we CANNOT WAIT!

You'd be hard-pressed to find someone who doesn't respect, revere or just downright adore actor Morgan Freeman.

If we keep trying, we may be as cool, calm and collected as him one day, but until then we'll just remind ourselves why it's totes normal to want to be a 77-year-old male actor.

Here are just five reasons for channelling your inner Morgan

We want a voice as comforting as hot chocolate on a winter’s night, just like him.

We want people to say our voice sounds like the voice of God, just like they do about him.

We want people to create memes about how amazing we are, just like they do for him.

We want people to attribute touching, thought-provoking quotes to us whether we said them or not, just like he gets.

We want to star in critically-acclaimed Oscar-winning movies, just like he has.

Honestly, is it too much ask?
