Munn expressed frustration over what she says is a lack of consequences against accused abusers in Hollywood.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
“When most people mess up, we have to go to the back of the line and earn our way back up,” Munn said. “But then, there are these certain men who, when they mess up they kind of go: ‘Oops, sorry, my bad,’\u00a0 and then just resume their place in line.”<\/p>\n
While she noted that redemption is not out of the question, she said accused abusers need to go to the back of the line and earn respect back “just like everybody else.” The Predator\u00a0<\/i>star\u00a0referenced director Quentin Tarantino and brothers\u00a0Ben and Casey Affleck, specifically.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Tarantino, she said, “admitted to abusive behaviors on set and also admitted to knowing what Harvey Weinstein was doing.”<\/p>\n
That much is true. Tarantino admitted that he “knew enough to do more” than he did during an interview with the New York Times<\/em> in 2017.<\/p>\n Ben\u00a0Affleck also came under fire for keeping quiet on Weinstein’s abusive behavior. Affleck also faced accusations himself. He ultimately apologized for groping Hilarie Burton during an old appearance on MTV’s Total Request Live<\/em>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Munn added that those figures are “not incredibly talented in their own right” but given opportunities that feed their abusive tendencies and give them more power.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n “The thing is that, not that they\u2019re not incredibly talented in their own right, but when you are given the opportunity to have any kind of power and you abuse that power, I believe you immediately lose all positioning and that you don\u2019t get to have that power anymore,” the X-Men\u00a0<\/em>Apocalypse\u00a0<\/i>star\u00a0added.<\/p>\n
