Matthew Lawrence is opening up about a horrible experience from that involved an Oscar-winning film director. During the latest episode of his Brotherly Love podcast, Lawrence recalled being offered a role at a Marvel production but only if he stripped. “There’s been many times in my life where I’ve been propositioned to get a huge role,” Lawrence said. “I’ve lost my agency because I went to the hotel room, which I can’t believe they would send me to, of a very prominent Oscar award-winning director who showed up in his robe, asked me to take my clothes off and said he needed to take Polaroids of me.” Lawrence added, “And then if I did X, Y and Z, I would be the next Marvel character.
I didn’t do that, and my agency fired me because I left this director’s room.” The actor didn’t reveal any names or give dates on when this encounter happened.
Lawrence also mentioned the double standard that exists when male actors talk about sexual harassment versus female actors. “Terry Crews comes out and says it; people are laughing at him.
People don’t support him,” he said. “They kick him out. Why?
