In 2007, actress Helen Mirren alleged that she was sexually harassed by Winner in a casting session in 1964, which Winner denied.[72]
Following the allegations made against Harvey Weinstein in October 2017, Winner was accused by three women, Debbie Arnold, Cindy Marshall-Day and an unidentified woman, of demanding they expose their breasts to him – in Arnold's case during an audition at his home. The two named women refused.[73] Actress Marina Sirtis, who was directed by Winner in The Wicked Lady and Death Wish 3, has implied she was mistreated by Winner, as reported by The Stage in 2019:
When it comes to the dark side of film, TV and theatre's treatment of women, Sirtis is 'in awe of those young actresses' who have spoken out as part of the #MeToo and #TimesUp movements. She reveals she has been assaulted during her career. 'I went to see an agent here and he lifted up my dress', she says. 'And I know you're not supposed to speak ill of the dead', she adds, but she hopes that film director Michael Winner, who directed her in Death Wish 3, will 'rot in hell for all eternity'.[74]
Olympia Dukakis, who played an uncredited role in Death Wish, said in a February 2015 A.V. Club interview that she was harassed by Winner during her audition.[75]
In her book Star Trek: Open a Channel: A Woman's Trek, Nana Visitor describes being the target of abusive treatment by Winner on the set of The Sentinel. After the production wrapped, Visitor writes, Winner invited her to dinner and "sexually assaulted" her in his hotel room. Visitor chooses not to identify Winner by name in the text, but she specifies her character and the year, making it clear Winner was the director responsible.[76]
