'Zoey 101' star Matthew Underwood says agent assaulted him

Matthew Underwood, who played Logan Reese in Zoey 101 from 2005 to 2008, wrote on Instagram that he was assaulted by his agent when he was 19 but defended former teen stars not commenting on the documentary "Quiet on the Set" that detailed toxic working conditions and sexual assault at Nickelodeon.

Underwood said he reported the agent at the time and he was fired, but was still active in the industry.

The former star left acting after the assault.

Underwood went on to defend the former teen stars not commenting on the documentary.

“I imagine many of my friends in the business are being equally harassed if they aren’t joining in the chorus,” Underwood wrote, “so I’m sharing this with hope that some of you can recognize that just because a person doesn’t shout from the rooftops that pedophiles are bad or that people can suck — that does not mean they don’t have their own reasons for staying silent, good reasons, personal reasons.”

“I never had a bad experience working on set of a Nickelodeon show and I never had a bad experience with Dan. I have nothing to add to the conversation that anyone would care to hear,” Underwood said of Schneider.
