Casey Affleck speaks out about sexual harassment allegations following 2017 Oscars win
By Correspondent
In the weeks leading up to Sunday’s award show, several articles brought up claims of sexual harassment stemming from a 2010 lawsuit filed by two women who worked with Casey on the film I’m Still Here.The suit was ultimately settled out of court and Casey has continuously denied the allegations. Casey’s team even called the lawsuits “preposterous and without merit.”During his Boston Globe interview, Casey also said both sides in the case are prohibited from commenting on the matter, and none of the people who are condemning him online know what happened.Ultimately, Casey chose to focus on nothing but positive things Sunday evening during his acceptance speech.“I wish I had something bigger and more meaningful to say, but I’m just really proud to be a part of this community and I look out at all of you and I have this whole year,” he shared inside the Dolby Theatre. “I’m just dumb founded that I’m included. And it means a lot to me.”Casey concluded, “Of course, my mother and my father for mostly, usually believing in me in doing this. And Ben Affleck, I love you. You ain’t heavy. Thank you all very much. Discover more from NewsBreakers
