Aaron Sorkin says Scott Rudin ‘got what he deserves’ after bullying allegations
bombshell report in April from The Hollywood Reporter, which chronicled allegations of a history of bullying, including claims that the “unhinged” producer once attacked an assistant, Rudin stepped away from the play and other projects, such as the “The Music Man,” starring Hugh Jackman.In an interview with Vanity Fair published Thursday, Sorkin explained why he took the news of Rudin’s alleged abuse “personally” and why he didn’t speak up sooner in the wake of the report.“Had I known, there’s no chance I would’ve tolerated it, there’s no chance [director] Bart Sher would’ve tolerated it, that Jeff Daniels would’ve tolerated it. So we didn’t know.
