X-Men director Bryan Singer has been accused of committing a new sexual assault against a man in his 20s in New York City last year, according to the New York Police Department.

The criminal complaint was filed with the NYPD on May 9, 2014, alleging that Singer forced the man into a sexual act in New York against his will on March 23, 2013 according to Buzzfeed.

However, while no charges have been filed against the well-known Hollywood director, law enforcement officials said an investigation has been launched.

It’s not the first time that the hit movie maker has faced allegations of sexual assault against boys.

Two civil lawsuits alleged that Singer had sexually assaulted teenage boys – but both have recently been dropped.

The first, filed in May, by an unnamed British man known as ‘John Doe 117’ claimed that Singer had drugged and sexually assaulted him in a London hotel when he was a teenager.

The second case against Singer was filed in April by former aspiring actor Michael Egan, 31, in which he accused him of sexually abusing him during trips to Hawaii when he was 17.

But he dropped the case on Wednesday after reportedly being unable to find a lawyer who would represent him.

In 1997, a 14-year-old extra accused Singer of asking him and other minors to film a shower scene in the nude for the film Apt Pupil.

A lawsuit was filed but dismissed for insufficient evidence.

According to Singer’s Twitter feed, he was in New York and Jersey on March 23, the date the most recent assault is alleged to have taken place.

He tweeted: 'Reviewing previs on way back to Montreal. Got out of NYC before the storm,' from what appears to be to be a private plane.

In another tweet he was pictured outside a Denville Dairy and wrote: 'In Jersey, visiting the folks.'

The complaint filed against Singer is described as a ‘criminal sexual act.’

Under New York law, a ‘criminal sexual act’ usually relates to an adult having sex with someone who is underage.

Singer’s lawyer, Martin Singer, told Buzzfeed: ‘Neither my client nor any of his representatives have been contacted by the NYPD, or anyone else about an alleged criminal investigation of my client.

‘My client did not engage in any criminal or inappropriate behavior with anyone in New York or elsewhere.’

He added: ‘False investigations are filed all the time and no action is taken by the authorities.’

Singer is a prolific filmmaker and has directed big budget Hollywood films which include Superman Returns and The Usual Suspects.

His most recent film, X-Men: Days of Future Past, was released in May and has grossed more than $744 million worldwide.

“X-Men” director Bryan Singer allegedly drugged and sodomized a young Virginia man in a Manhattan hotel room last year, The Post has exclusively learned.

The 21-year-old victim told cops that he met Singer and several friends in XL Nightclub on West 42 Street near 10th Avenue around 10:30 pm on March 22, sources said.

He told police that he hung out and drank with the Hollywood honcho all night, sources said.

At some point, the victim told cops, Singer and company drugged him by forcing an orange drink down his throat, according to the sources.

Singer, who has also produced and directed “The Usual Suspects” and “Superman Returns,” then allegedly escorted the victim back to his hotel room.

Law enforcement sources said the victim was so out of it that he couldn’t remember the name of his hotel.

Once inside the room, Singer allegedly pinned him face down to the bed, climbed on top of him and sodomized him.

The victim told cops he then returned to Virginia without filing a complaint at first, sources said.

He waited until May 9 of this year to report the alleged attack to the 10th Precinct in Chelsea, sources say.

It was unclear why he waited so long.

The NYPD does not expect to charge the famed director due to a lack of evidence, sources said.

Singer was the subject of two civil suits alleging sexual abuse of underage boys earlier this year, but both have since been dropped.

The first accuser, Michael Egan, filed his suit in April in Honolulu, Hawaii, claiming that Singer had drugged and sexually assaulted him, when Egan was 17 in 1999.

But Egan dropped the suit after he gave conflicting accounts and had a falling out with his attorney.

Then, in May, Singer was slapped with a second lawsuit by a British actor, who made similar sex assault claims. But the young man decided to drop the suit in July.

Singer has vigorously defended himself against both suits.

His attorney, Marty Singer (no relation), dismissed the latest allegations against the Hollywood heavyweight as yet another attempt to destroy his reputation.

“Number one, we were never contacted by the NYPD or by the alleged victim or another person on behalf of the victim,” the lawyer told The Post. “This is a well calculated and choreographed attempt to keep this smear attempt in motion.”
