Simu Liu To Press Charges Against Autograph Seekers Who Harassed Him During Book Signing Event

“Shang-Chi” star Simu Liu said he is planning to file a police report against “aggressive” autograph seekers who harassed him during a book signing event this week.

The 33-year-old actor said he had a “not great altercation” with professional autograph seekers who got upset and threw soda on his car window on Tuesday.

Liu tweeted about his experience and said he will file a police report against the group who harassed him and his team at the event promoting his new memoir, “We Were Dreamers” at the Perelman theater in Philadelphia.

“Had a not great altercation at the end of my book event in Philly,” the Marvel actor wrote. “Look, I'm trying to have a real moment with my audience. If you come to my events and harass me or make me or my fans uncomfortable, there's no chance in hell I'm going to sign for you. Don't cross that line," he continued.

The actor shared a blurry photo of two people inside a black vehicle and wrote on the photo saying, "Best photo that I could get but these professional autograph sellers followed us out of the Philly event and then threw soda on our window. They then ran to their car to remove the front license plate so we couldn't ID them."

Liu said he is working with his staff to identify the individuals so he could press charges against them. “Obviously everyone is fine but we're just a bit in shock that this could happen," he added.

The actor also unleashed strong words against vendors of autographs who may try similar gestures in his future engagements.

"Autographing for people who will just resell it on eBay is a personal choice. Sometimes we do it, but I don't personally like to reward certain types of behaviour," Simu wrote on his Instagram Story. He added, "Especially when the people get aggressive and invasive and make my real fans and supporters uncomfortable."

"I've had a couple of bad experiences in a row where my personal space has been badly violated. Just know that if you cross that line for me or for my fans, there isn't a chance in hell I'm ever gonna sign for you," he stated.
