The Romanoffs cancelled already?
Following the ongoing allegations about Harvey Weinstein‘s conduct towards women, Amazon is “reviewing” its options for Weinstein Co. series, including The Romanoffs and an untitled drama starring Robert De Niro and Julianne Moore, per THR:
Several Amazon Studios executives — male and female, from various departments — have expressed concern about the company’s involvement on two expensive and high-profile Weinstein Co. series amid a relentless series of revelations about Harvey Weinstein’s conduct toward women.
Asked for comment, Craig Berman, vp communications at Amazon Entertainment, said Tuesday in a statement to The Hollywood Reporter, “We are reviewing our options for the projects we have with The Weinstein Co.”
While the $75 million Weiner anthology is in production and is said to be going smoothly, the Russell series is said to have already cost Amazon $40 million with only a handful of scripts turned in.
