After Harvey Weinstein was accused in 2017 of sexually attacking several women in Hollywood, then later convicted and sent to prison for his crimes,[1] many companies, film makers, actors and actresses refused to work with Weinstein or his studio again, and many people in the company itself quit.[2] The Weinstein Company was put up for sale and eventually renamed Lantern Entertainment, which is now considered a separate company.
