Colin Farrell has spoken of his shock at the allegations of sexual harassment and assault made against Harvey Weinstein.
The disgraced Hollywood producer was fired from the company he co-founded on Sunday, after several women made allegations of sexual misconduct against him, which were published in The New York Times.
The Irish actor condemned the producer’s “horrific” actions – and said that he hopes the scandal will lead to change in the film industry.
Speaking to the Press Association, Colin said, “It’s horrific, it’s just mad.”
“I’m just watching it unfold and then tearing myself away from it and realising the horribleness of it all and the wrongdoing, fundamentally, around the whole thing and just wish healing for everyone and that changes are made.
“I hope anyone who was hurt that they have healing, it’s just atrocious really,” he added.
Meanwhile, it’s been reported that London’s Metropolitan Police and the New York Polie Department have begun to investigate allegations against the Hollywood producer.
Harvey has “unequivocally denied” any allegations of non-consensual sex – but has admitted that he has made “mistakes”.
