Emma Thompson Calls Out John Lasseter

In late 2017, Disney/Pixar Chief John Lasseter took a sabbatical after sexual harassment allegations arose from multiple employees, one of whom later detailed and emphasized his “sleazy spin” and pattern of “open sexism.” In January, actor Emma Thompson made waves in the industry by pulling out of a starring role in Skydance’s upcoming animation feature, Luck, after they hired Lasseter.
