In a shocking revelation, actress Sean Young, famous for her role as Rachael in Blade Runner, has come forward with allegations of s**ual harassment against disgraced Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein.
According to Young, Weinstein exposed himself to her while she was working on a film produced by Miramax, his former production company.
Young shared her story during an appearance on the Dudley and Bob with Matt Show podcast in Austin.
She recounted her experience while filming Love Crimes in 1992, stating that Weinstein pulled out his private parts in front of her.
In response, Young told Weinstein, “Harvey, I really don't think you should be exposing yourself like that.
It's not pleasant to look at.”
Following the incident, she never had another meeting with him, finding the situation bewildering.
The actress also expressed her belief that many other women did not speak out about their experiences due to the existing system.
She claimed that standing up for oneself in Hollywood often results in being labeled as “crazy.”
In a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, Young described the incident as “disgusting” and revealed that she never received another opportunity to work on a Miramax film again.
Young further disclosed an alleged incident involving Warren Beatty, which Beatty denies.
She claimed that Barbra Streisand criticized her at the time for speaking to the press about the harassment.
According to Young, Streisand said, “I think it's disgusting that you talked to the press!”
However, Streisand has denied ever interviewing Young and expressed her disapproval of any form of harassment against women.
During the podcast, the co-hosts sympathized with Young, suggesting that she was mistreated because she rejected advances from men.
They recalled her being labeled as “difficult to work with.”
Young herself admitted that she may have handled the situation differently, possibly being more accommodating.
Young now joins the growing list of over 40 women who have accused Weinstein of s**ual misconduct, harassment, or assault.
Some women have even accused him of rape, leading to an ongoing investigation by the LAPD.
These revelations emerged during a discussion about Young's involvement in Blade Runner 2049, currently playing in theaters.
The film features a digitally recreated version of her original character.
As of now, Young has not responded to requests for comment on her allegations.
