Jennifer Lawrence says Harvey Weinstein is "an ass boil that does not go away".
The Academy Award-winning actress has slammed the disgraced Hollywood producer, whose lawyers have previously cited Jennifer as someone with whom he supposedly had a healthy professional relationship.
Jennifer has now rubbished those suggestions, telling ‘The Late Show with Stephen Colbert’: "He’s an ass boil that does not go away … he’s just the worst, when is it going to end?
"This awfulness is still happening."
Jennifer, 27, has also spoken out in support of the Time’s Up and #MeToo campaigns, which were created in response to the Hollywood sex scandal.
The actress claimed that the move to fight sexual harassment could mark a turning point in history.
She told ITV’s ‘Lorraine’: "I’m so happy to be alive right now during this movement. I just think that the Time’s Up movement, the #MeToo, we’re going to make a world so different for the women coming after us. We have to reshape the way that we’re treated.
"The things that were normalised before aren’t going to be normal anymore. I completely support it."
Weinstein, 65, has been accused of sexual harassment or abuse by more than 50 women since October last year.
The world-famous producer is currently under investigation by police in the US and the UK.
However, no charges have yet been brought.
Weinstein has previously admitted to having "caused a lot of pain", but he’s also denied many of the accusations he’s now facing.
Meanwhile, it was recently revealed that The Weinstein Company is headed for bankruptcy.
The film studio – which was co-founded by the producer – is set to file for bankruptcy after negotiations to sell its assets to an investor group collapsed.
The board had been trying to sell to a consortium headed by Maria Conteras-Sweet in a deal worth around $500 million, which would have seen a new, largely-female board take control.
However, negotiations collapsed when the New York attorney general’s office filed a civil rights lawsuit against the firm and its co-founders over the allegations of sexual misconduct.
