00:07Happy Friday everybody, I hope you have a wonderful weekend planned.
00:12But first, you've got your final instalment of The Daily Lowdown for the week.
00:16The Deb actor, Charlotte McInnes, who accused director Rebel Wilson of defaming her,
00:21is to appeal against a ruling in an Australian court that found Rebel not guilty.
00:26Rebel was cleared after Charlotte alleged she defamed her or breached her confidence in four social media posts
00:32by allegedly falsely suggesting she had withdrawn a sexual harassment complaint against one of the film's producers to advance her
00:39career.
00:40The judge ruled that none of Rebel's posts were defamatory and dismissed the case, ordering Charlotte to pay costs.
00:45Rebel still faces another defamation case in California in the US in October against The Deb's producer Amanda Ghost
00:52and actor Gregor Cameron and executive producer Vince Holden.
00:57Next up, Back to the Future star Michael J. Fox has said acting prolonged my life following his Parkinson's diagnosis.

01:10a year after Back to the Future Part 3, in which he played the character Marty McFly, which was released
01:16in 1990.
01:17Michael told The Hollywood Reporter,
01:20acting prolonged my life and made my life interesting in a way that I didn't think it would be to
01:24this point.
01:25I'm not retired from acting, but if I didn't act again, it would be for a very good reason.
01:30I let Parkinson's make decisions for me.
01:32The actor went on to say that he had to overcome vanity when revealing the impact the disease had on
01:37him
01:37and added that he needed to normalise it.
01:40Michael first noticed a tremor in his little finger before his diagnosis at the age of 29
01:44and the progressive neurological condition has severely affected his mobility.
