Emma Thompson resigns from Hollywood movie after studio hires former Pixar chief who allegedly groped employees

Emma Thompson quit a Hollywood film to take a stand against “centuries of entitlement to women’s bodies” after the studio hired an executive accused of groping employees.

Lasseter stood down from Disney last summer when the allegations came to light but was hired in January as the new head of Skydance Animation. Its chief executive attempted to assure employees that Lasseter’s employment contract forbade him from engaging in any unprofessional conduct. Emma added: “Much has been said about giving John Lasseter a ‘second chance’. But he is presumably being paid millions of dollars to receive that second chance. How much money are the employees at Skydance being paid to GIVE him that second chance?

EmmaThompson RESPECT!
