The Academy Award-winning actor reportedly grabbed the butt of a 17-year-old girl while on the set of 1985 TV film Death of a Salesman.
The woman in question was interning on set at the time and alleges that Hoffman was “openly flirtatious” and talked about sex in front of her.
Hoffman, 80, apologised for the possible incident in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter.
He said: “I have the utmost respect for women and feel terrible that anything I might have done could have put her in an uncomfortable situation.
“I am sorry. It is not reflective of who I am.”
The news follows claims that Kevin Spacey made sexual advances to Star Trek actor Anthony Rapp when he was 14.
The woman who has come forward with these allegations against Hoffman wrote an article for The Hollywood Reporter and she appears to have waived her right to anonymity.
Writer Anna Graham Hunter published both a picture of her with Dustin and named herself in the first person piece to The Hollywood Reporter.
Anna said she “loved the attention” at first, until she didn’t.
“One morning I went to his dressing room to take his breakfast order, he looked at me and grinned, taking his time,” Anna told the publication.
“Then he said, ‘I’ll have a hard-boiled egg…and a soft-boiled clitoris.’
“His entourage burst out laughing. I left, speechless. Then I went to the bathroom and cried.”
