Comment on I wish there were more like him in the industry

  I had a brief look around and these accusations seem to originally come up in a leaked script for an episode of the Duexmoi gossip podcast. Some of the responses to the accusations can be found in this Vulture article, but there’s not a lot in it. As they state, “everybody involved in The Witcher is […] playing nice on the record.” So… *shrug*. Very disappointing if true, but no one’s confirming anything…

  He’s missing the “controversy” section on his Wikipedia. Which is my litmus test of how big are your red flags

    Huh? So a lack of mention of controversy with sources to back it up is a red flag to you? Weird.

      No, you’re reading that backwards somehow. A lack of controversy section shows that there are no good sources and the red flags are not that big.

        You’re right, apologies.

      Yeah, that Gene Wilder is an asshole because he doesn’t have “controversy” in his wiki.

  I’d seen this all multiple places before but doing a quick search here is a source on the most recent round of Netflix and superman stuff

  Personally I think a lot of this is overblown. Specifically the not wanting shirtless scenes and stuff is a personal thing that’s up to the comfort of the actor. The bits I don’t like are harassing women and his previous comments about the MeToo movement which make me far more likely to believe the current accusations against him.

    posting the same link over and over doesn’t really help your case bud

      I replied to each comment that asked for a source with a source. Seemed like the best way to make sure everyone that wanted to be notified got notified.

        The commenter asked for a primary source, which I’m also interested in. Does one exist?
