“The Crown” star Matt Smith is voicing his support for the #MeToo movement, saying that he, too, has had unfortunate run-ins with Hollywood men.
“The conversation shouldn’t stop at this industry just because these are ‘celebrities’ who we know about who are involved. It has to be broader,” he told the UK’s Telegraph of the sexual assault and harassment allegations coming to light. “People in other industries have to have a platform to be heard as well. What happens to the cleaner or the lady who works in a clothes shop? That’s not to say I haven’t been objectified before by men, because I have — just like women are objectified.
“It is not exclusive to them. This happens to men, too.”
Terry Crews recently came forward with an allegation of sexual assault against WME executive Adam Venit. The agency temporarily suspended Venit but he has since returned to work.
“SOMEONE GOT A PASS,” Crews bluntly shared on Twitter linking to a Hollywood Reporter article announcing Venit’s return.
