Actress Rose McGowan in Manhattan Court on the first day of Harvey Weinstein's trial - Steve Sands / Starface

The conviction of Harvey Weinstein does not prevent Rose McGowan from being particularly turned up against the Hollywood system. The actress, spearhead of the #MeToo movement in the United States, took advantage of the announcement of the sentence of the ousted producer to remind that some people could have spoken to denounce the actions of the former boss of Miramax earlier. And among these people, she cites Ben Affleck.

"Ben Affleck. I am sad for him. It must be hard to play a superhero instead of being one. He could have spoken. He could still do it. But he was raised in this toxic intersection between Hollywood, the media and politics, "she wrote in a post on Twitter.

You are right Johnathon. Ben Affleck. I feel sorry for him. It must be so wearying playing a superhero instead of being one. He could have risen. He still can. He was raised at the teat of that toxic intersection Hollywood / Media / Politics. Michael Bay made him shave his teal teeth https://t.co/NWX4UdFfUm

"Hollywood is a disease"

It is not the first time that the actress has attacked the Batman interpreter, but this time, she goes much further.

"It would be a good time to reveal everything, Ben. Here's what I think you should do: shut down your PR machine and be true, for once. We all know, think about what happened to you and ask yourself if you are capable of being the multimillionaire who can break the system by telling the truth. It will set you free and inspire other people. Hollywood is a disease that you can cure, ”adds Rose McGowan.

Ben Affleck has not yet reacted to the words of his colleague, with whom he played in particular in Phantoms produced by Bob and Harvey Weinstein. The actor was also on the "Red Flag List" established by the producer convicted on those likely to report his actions to the press in 2017, before the publication of two investigations concerning him by the New Yorker and the New York Times .
