Those accusations include instances in which he allegedly invited women to his hotel room, asked them for massages and, in one case, asked a woman to watch him shower. Streep had worked with the producer on a number of films, including 2012’s _The_ _Iron Lady_ and 2013’s _August: Osage County,_ both of which saw her nominated for an Academy Award. In Streep’s acceptance speech for her _Iron Lady_ win, she thanked Weinstein and called him “God.” In her statement, Streep said she did not know about Weinstein’s behavior. --- > “” --- Streep is one of the first of those in the industry who worked closely with Weinstein to speak out after the allegations emerged. The New York _Times_ report detailed decades of inappropriate behavior and at least eight settlements he had made with women, including the actors Ashley Judd and Rose McGowan. Before being fired following a board meeting at the Weinstein Company, the film executive took a leave of absence from his company. In a statement last week, Weinstein apologized for his behavior. “I appreciate the way I’ve behaved with colleagues in the past has caused a lot of pain, and I sincerely apologize for it,” he said. “Though I’m trying to do better, I know I have a long way to go.” ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4974377/meryl-streep-harvey-weinstein/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4974377/meryl-streep-harvey-weinstein/"},"headline":"Meryl Streep Says Harvey Weinstein Is 'Disgraceful'","datePublished":"2017-10-09T15:17:55.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-23T17:46:58.890Z","description":"Streep worked with Weinstein on several films but says she didn't know about his behavior","url":"https://time.com/4974377/meryl-streep-harvey-weinstein/","keywords":["Harvey Weinstein","onetime"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltc8daeb458c2069d7/6988e1120a4a227f179d03c1/streep-weinstein.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Jennifer Calfas","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/jennifer-calfas/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltc8daeb458c2069d7/6988e1120a4a227f179d03c1/streep-weinstein.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Australian Academy Of Cinema And Television Arts International Awards Ceremony","caption":"Australian Academy Of Cinema And Television Arts International Awards Ceremony","creditText":"John Shearer—WireImage","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/harvey-weinstein/","name":"Harvey Weinstein"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4974377/meryl-streep-harvey-weinstein/","name":"Meryl Streep Says Harvey Weinstein Is 'Disgraceful'"}}]}] ```
