“True Lies” actress Jamie Lee Curtis revealed Sunday that co-star Eliza Dushku confided in her “a few years ago” that she was sexually abused while making the 1994 action flick.

The now-37-year-old Dushku this weekend accused a “True Lies” stunt coordinator of molesting her during filming, when she was just 12.

“Yesterday, Eliza Dushku published her account of having been molested during the shooting of the movie `True Lies,’ in which I played her mother,” Curtis wrote in a piece for the Huffington Post.

“She had shared that story with me privately a few years ago. I was shocked and saddened then and still am today.”

Curtis, 59, said Dushku’s story should be a wakeup call about rampant child abuse in Hollywood.

“We have all started to awaken to the fact that the terrible abuses now commonplace in daily news reports have been going on for a very long time,” Curtis said.

“Unconscionably, those reports frequently come along with claims by the perpetrators that, as adults, those perpetrated against had some part in it.”

She added: “Eliza’s story has now awakened us from our denial slumber to a new, horrific reality. The abuse of children.”

Curtis’s comments came as the accused stunt coordinator, Joel Kramer, was dumped by his agent.

“WPA [Worldwide Production Agency] has elected to part ways with Joel Kramer based on the allegations of misconduct now being reported,” the firm said in a statement to multiple trade publications Sunday.

“Such behavior is unacceptable and entirely at odds with the the standards of conduct we demand of ourselves, and expect from our clients.”

Curtis said she hopes more victims will have the strength to step forward.

“The truth will set us all free,” she wrote. “Hopefully that freedom will bring a new ability to call out abuse and, when that abuse occurs, to have swift and consistent action, so that no one again will have to wait 25 years for their truth to be heard.”
