A sexual assault lawsuit against actor Sebastian Chacon, best known for his role as drummer Warren Rojas on the Amazon series Daisy Jones & the Six, has been officially settled in New York, a development that comes more than two years after the allegations first surfaced.
Chacon’s case was dismissed “with prejudice” by the New York State Supreme Court in December 2025, meaning the lawsuit can no longer be refiled. Attorneys for both Chacon and the plaintiffs signed a cease and desist order, ending the civil action filed in November 2023 under the Adult Survivors Act.
In a statement released through his spokesman, Chacon described the ordeal as deeply difficult and stressed that he has never admitted any wrongdoing. “This has been a terribly painful and costly experience that has turned my life and my family’s life upside down,” he said.
“There was never a criminal case, I never admitted any wrongdoing and the matter is now closed for good.” He added that the legal process taught him how damaging civil litigation can be and said, “My heart goes out to anyone navigating a situation like this. I’m focused on moving on and rebuilding my life and work.”
The lawsuit originally alleged sexual, emotional and physical abuse by multiple plaintiffs, including a claim involving an incident when one plaintiff was under 18. At the time the lawsuit was filed, Chacon lost representation at his talent agency and was removed from an upcoming film project.
Chacon first came to prominence playing Warren Rojas in Daisy Jones & the Six, which tells the story of a fictional 1970s rock band and was adapted from Taylor Jenkins Reid’s best-selling novel. His other credits include appearances in series such as Pose, Mr. Robot and Penny Dreadful: City of Angels.
With the trial now over, Chacon has expressed a desire to move past the controversy as he tries to rebuild both his personal life and professional career.
Chacon began his acting career in 2014, making his short film debut in Rolling as Stephen. He made his first television appearance playing Ken in the political drama series Madam Secretary in the episode “Higher Learning”.
In 2017, Chacon made his feature film debut in the crime film Contents Under Pressure, where he played the lead role of Andre. That same year, he made his TV movie debut in Crash & Burn as JR Lopez. In 2018, Chacon appeared as a Puzzlemania employee in a drama film Puzzle.
