Rebecca Hall: I regret apologising for working with Woody Allen


The British film star issued a statement after accusations were made against the director but now says ‘I don’t think it’s the responsibility of his actors to speak to that situation’

Hall’s original decision to say that she was “profoundly sorry” had followed not just the breaking of the Weinstein scandal, but a public call made a month before by Allen’s daughter, Dylan Farrow. Farrow’s claim had already prompted a number of Hollywood figures to speak out against the critically acclaimed American film director, among them Mira Sorvino and Greta Gerwig. The statement Hall issued back then in a post on Instagram – and which she now believes was a mistake, “because I don’t think it’s the responsibility of his actors to speak to that situation” – had laid out a pledge that she would no longer work with Allen.
