Uma Thurman says she's been 'waiting to feel less angry' about sexual misconduct in Hollywood

On Saturday Uma Thurman, the actor who starred in multiple films associated with the Weinstein company, made a powerful comment on the allegations of sexual assault made against Hollywood stars and studio executives.

Speaking to Access Hollywood, Thurman was asked, 'as such a powerful woman in film, what are your thoughts about women speaking out about inappropriate behaviour in the workplace?'.

I don't have a tidy sound bite for you because I have learned I am not a child and I have learned that when I have spoken in anger I usually regret the way I express myself.

So I have been waiting to feel less angry and when I'm ready I will say what I have to say.

Thurman made the remarks in New York City, on the red carpet of her current play, The Parisian Woman.

The play was authored in 2013 by Beau Willimon.

Until 2016 Willimon was the show-runner and creative mind behind the US adaptation for Netflix of House of Cards, starring Kevin Spacey, who has himself been recently accused of sexual harassment.
