Amanda Seyfried Grossed Out She Invited ‘Dictator’ Harvey Weinstein to Past Sundance Premiere: ‘It’s Just the Way It Was — We All Needed Him’


Emmy contenders Amanda Seyfried and Adam Brody remember an era when all indie films needed the blessing of Harvey Weinstein to become successful.

Actor Amanda Seyfried said Hollywood is a “safer” place since the downfall of Harvey Weinstein, while cringing over the influence the movie mogul used to wield. “I gave him the biggest hug… And it was actually his brother [Bob Weinstein]’s company called Radius, who just fucking trashed it and threw it away and didn’t do anything with it and that’s fine,” Seyfried said, also using the word “dictator” to describe the studio head. Seyfried, currently an Emmy contender for her Peacock cop drama “Long Bright River,” is grateful that Weinstein’s reign of terror has ended.
