Carey Mulligan and Zoe Kazan Expose Harvey Weinstein in 'She Said'
“She said” is here. The film is based on the book of the same name which chronicles New York Times reporters Jodi Kantor and Megan Twohey's quest to unravel the story of Harvey Weinstein's misconduct in Hollywood. The revelations ended up propelling the #MeToo movement and led many in Hollywood to speak out against sexual abuse and assault. Eventually, celebrities such as Gwyneth Paltrow, Lupita Nyong'o, Angelina Jolie, Salma Hayek and others brought charges against Weinstein, who is currently serving a 23-year sentence for felony sex crimes. In the film, Zoe Kazan and Carey Mulligan play Kantor and Twohey, respectively.
Mulligan and Kazan debuted the trailer in April at CinemaCon. According to Deadline, Mulligan said at the time, "It was our honor to represent these women."
"She Said" is directed by Maria Schrader and written by Rebecca Lenkiewicz. Its producers include Brad Pitt's production company, Plan B Entertainment. Pitt was dating Paltrow when, according to the actor, Weinstein sexually harassed her, and Pitt has previously spoken about confronting the producer at the time. Pitt then worked with Weinstein on "Inglorious Basterds" in 2009 and "Killing Them Softly" in 2012.
