Julia Roberts is starring in a new film that co-stars Ayo Edebiri and Andrew Garfield called After The Hunt, which chronicles the blowback of a sexual assault accusation in a university. The film obviously tackles the themes of Me Too, but when an Italian journalist sat down with the three and wanted to know their thoughts on Black Lives Matter and Me Too, she decided that she didn’t need Edebiri’s answer.
The story has gained traction on social media, and it’s one of those “you have to see it to believe it” scenarios. In the interview, Federica Polidoro sits off-screen and asks the three stars a question that, in all fairness, seems relevant to the film: what to expect from Hollywood after “the death of the politically correct era.” She zeroes in specifically on the Me Too movement and, for some reason, the Black Lives Matter movement. One would assume it’s because Edebiri is a Black woman and plays the sexual assault survivor in After The Hunt, but no — Polidoro specifically says she only needs an answer from Roberts and Garfield.
