Speaking to Variety for their pre-Oscars issue, Hawn slammed disgraced director Weinstein and recalled standing up to the “bully.” Hawn was originally set to star as Velma Kelly alongside Madonna’s Roxie Hart. “He’s finally living his karma,” Hawn insisted of Weinstein, who is behind bars after being accused of assault and abuse by multiple women.
