Eva Green has revealed she was "shocked and disgusted" after an encounter producer with Harvey Weinstein made advances on her, forcing the actress to "push him away".
Eva Green's revelation comes after reports that Weinstein engaged in sexual misconduct with several women.
The Bond actor who appeared in Casino Royale is the latest woman to come forward with allegations of sexual harassment against one of Hollywood's most powerful producers.
Green rose to prominence after her mother, actress Marlene Jobert, claimed on a Europe Radio 1 program that Weinstein threatened to destroy her daughter's career after she rejected him.
Jobert said Weinstein was a "terrible man" who made sexual advances to his daughter in exchange for promises of career success. Jobbert said Weinstein threatened to stop other filmmakers casting her for future projects. According to her, the events happened in 2010 or 2011.
When she was interviewed by Europe 1 radio, she said the following in French: “My daughter Eva was the victim of this horrible man ... He is careless, he insisted for several months from the moment he arrived in Paris. Start calling her.
“She didn't react ... she was quite scared, this guy had so much power. Power over the entire cinema. He was so angry that he stuck a lot of sticks in her wheels.
She recalled how Weinstein approached her daughter, saying, “He was with Eva the same way he was with everyone else, with the same modus operandi: under the pretext of a professional meeting, with a vision to deliver, a big role at stake.
"His office was also in his hotel suite, so he asked them to come upstairs, and then, great ... he promised to promote their profession for the sake of sex, like everyone else."
In an official statement sent to Variety, Green addressed her mother's comments about Harvey Weinstein in a recent interview. Green stated, "I would like to echo the comments my mother made in a recent interview regarding Harvey Weinstein."
“I met him in Paris for a business meeting where he behaved inappropriately and I had to push him. I left without going any further, but the experience left me shocked and disgusted,” she added.
"I haven't discussed this before because I want to maintain my privacy, but I understand it's important to do so as I hear about other women's experiences," she continued. "Women are often stigmatized when they speak up and their personal reputations are tarnished by association."
"I salute the extraordinary bravery of the women who came forward," she added. “We need to recognize that this kind of behavior is everywhere and not unique to the entertainment industry. Exploitation of power is everywhere. This behavior is unacceptable and must be removed.
While actresses often face struggles and challenges in their careers, the film industry can be a tough place for women. Many actresses struggle to get roles, and when they do, they are often paid less than their male counterparts.
In addition, some actresses have reported being taken advantage of by powerful men in the industry, and the lack of representation and opportunities for women in Hollywood remains a significant problem.
One of the biggest challenges actresses face in Hollywood is the lack of available roles. Many actresses find it difficult to land parts in major productions, which are often passed over in favor of male actors.
This can lead to frustration and depression, which can make it difficult for actresses to build a successful career. For example, actress Constance Wu has spoken out about the lack of roles for Asian actresses in Hollywood, and she has criticized the industry for its lack of diversity.
In addition to the lack of roles, actresses are often paid less than their male counterparts. In recent years, the issue of unequal pay in Hollywood has been brought to the fore, with many actresses speaking out about the pay gap between men and women in the industry.
This unequal pay can make it difficult for actresses to support themselves and their families, which can be a huge hindrance to their success.
For example, actress Jennifer Lawrence has written about her experiences with unequal pay in Hollywood, and she has called for more equality in the industry.
Additionally, there have been reports of some actresses being abused by powerful people in the industry. The rise of the MeToo movement has drawn attention to the problem of sexual harassment and assault in Hollywood, and many actresses have come forward with stories of mistreatment by men in positions of power.
This can make it difficult for female performers to feel safe and supported in the industry, which can be a huge hindrance to their success. For example, actress Rose McGowan has spoken out for victims of sexual assault in Hollywood, where she has accused powerful producer Harvey Weinstein of assaulting her.
Overall, Hollywood actresses
