Skeet Ulrich, star of 1996’s Scream and now CW's Riverdale, opened up about working with Harvey Weinstein, who's production company was behind the movie Scream. Skeet says he knew about the sexual assault accusations against Harvey, but couldn’t do anything about them, according to Cosmopolitan.
“I knew. Most people knew,” the actor told Cosmo. “I had dinner with someone who is one of the most famous women on the planet — I won’t say who it is — who has not come out, who told me similar things. … There is nothing you can do. I mean, what am I gonna do?"
"I can’t step up, certainly then, on allegations," Skeet continued. "Honestly, and I think it’s what most people faced: How do you cut your livelihood from a very powerful corporation on something that you don’t know what the facts are?”
More than 40 women have come forward accusing Harvey of sexual assault and harassment, including A-list actresses like Ashley Judd and Rose McGowan.

Skeet added that he’s “glad” people are finally coming forward about Harvey. “That’s what it takes,” he said. “Because one person stepping up and making allegations is gonna hurt that one person and not help anyone, especially against someone with that power.”
In the wake of these allegations, Harvey's wife Georgina Chapman has left him. Skeet isn't the first to say he knew about the rumors. In a statement, Glenn Close also admitted to hearing about Harvey's inappropriate actions.
