The Briefing: Nudity Riders, Consent, and the Terrifier Lawsuit: What Producers Must Know

The Terrifier franchise is one of the most unlikely independent horror success stories of the last 25 years. But a new lawsuit challenges how the first film was made and raises serious questions about performer consent and on-set protections. In this episode of The Briefing, Weintraub Tobin partners Scott Hervey and Matt Sugarman break down actress Katherine Cochrane’s lawsuit against the film’s producers and what it reveals about SAG-AFTRA requirements for nudity and simulated sex scenes. In this episode, they cover: What a SAG nudity rider is and why it is legally required How consent must be disclosed, documented, and respected on set Why filming nudity without a signed rider can be deemed nonconsensual The risks producers face when still images or footage are reused without permission How intimacy coordinators and detailed riders protect both performers and productions This case is a reminder that nudity riders are not a formality. They are a core safeguard in film and television production. Tune in for a clear look at how SAG protections, performer consent, and production liability intersect.
