The director of The Predator hired a friend of his (without an audition) to play a character who shared a scene with Olivia Munn's character. She found out about this and discovered that the director's friend was a sex offender who groomed an underage girl. She tried bringing this to the attention of executives and the sex offender was fired only at the last minute.
None of her co-stars said anything about it despite being aware of the situation. Since then she hasn't really gotten any notable film roles.
Thats not really the case.
the guy was tried and convicted and served prison time. This was many years later after and he was trying to get work years after doing his time and fixing his life and trying to do better. He did nothing wrong, he was just looking for work and Munn flipped out, tried to get the guy fired, refused to come out and do her job, went to higher ups above the people she was supposed, then got mad at her costars for not also demanding the guy get fired.
He also didnt physically do anything, but just tried to meet someone once after talking online. Im not defending that. But I do believe in second chances.
She sorta went and ruined it making it out like youre not allowed any second chance and it didnt matter that all that was from way before. She was also going out publicly trying to ruin this guys life on social media and even put down the costars and people working on the movie for allowing him there.
It was all over the guy working for hours. Not weeks or months, hours.
She even did interviews putting down her costars and saying they were horrible and such for not contacting her after the movie to see if shes ok like she was some giant victim.
She also did all this the days and week before the movie released in theaters. Which yes the week before its release all the headlines and press for this turned into her flipping out about her costars and this guy and how horrible Fox and all the people were, which they believe really hurt its ticket sales on the movie.
Also she wasnt a great actor, she got her first biggest acting breaks by people dating directors and such who put her in their movies, not by skill. Also she was in numerous bombs.
and she wasnt blacklisted after refusing to work with that guy, she had a baby and took time off to raise him. Its kind completely changing how it was.
