Thurman stated during the interview that "There is no one I wish to get due process more than him," referring to Weinstein, for all the charges that he is currently facing that all allude to sexual abuse. It is important to note that Thurman did not delve into detail regarding what transpired between her and Weinstein during the interview.
As reported by People, the disgraced producer's camp denies all the allegations that Thurman had made to the New York Times, stating that Weinstein did not assault the actress but simply made an "awkward pass" after the actress allegedly sent flirtatious signals toward him 25 years ago in the sauna of the Savoy Hotel in London.
Additionally, Weinstein's spokesperson claims that the producer was shocked to find out about the release of Thurman's story, since he considers her to be both a colleague and a close friend.
Thurman spared no details as to what had transpired 25 years ago, stating that Weinstein attempted to "expose himself" to her, pushed her down, and physically forced himself upon her. However, she also stated that he did not give his full effort to physically assault her, and she was able to break free after some time.
