NBC News Exclusive: Three Dustin Hoffman Accusers Speak With Cynthia McFadden In First Television Interview

Airs on "NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt" Tonight

Tonight on "NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt," NBC News senior investigative and legal correspondent Cynthia McFadden sits down for an exclusive television interview with Anna Graham Hunter, Cori Thomas and Kathryn Rossetter, three women who have accused actor Dustin Hoffman of sexual misconduct. This interview marks the first time Hunter, Thomas and Rossetter are coming forward on television, as well as the first time all three women are speaking out together to the media.

In the preview clip (below), Rossetter, who acted alongside Hoffman in "Death of a Salesman," tells NBC News: "People go, 'How is it to work with Dustin?' And I tell the half-truth which is, as an actor working with him, I owe him everything. I learned so much and then I would stop and there would always be a knot in my stomach about what the real truth was which is that he was abusive, and he was a bully."

At this time, Hoffman's lawyers have called Thomas' claims "defamatory falsehoods." NBC News has reached out to Hoffman's lawyers regarding claims made by Hunter and Rossetter.
