Variety reported in July 2023 that Samantha Morton appeared on an episode of The Louis Theroux Podcast and accused producer Harvey Weinstein of trying to destroy her career because she turned down his offer to star in this. She said she read the script, felt it was really misogynistic and didn't want to be part of it. The casting director warned her "You don't say no to Harvey" and "You're not going to work again unless you do this role." Morton refused, which she said led to her being blackballed in future Weinstein-produced projects such as The Brothers Grimm. According to Morton, Weinstein said he didn't want her for that role because she was "unfuckable." Following Morton's podcast appearance, Weinstein reached out to Variety from behind bars, where he was serving a 23-year sentence for rape, to issue a statement claiming that she is using his name to "advance" her own "agenda." He pointed out that her career wasn't damaged and she went on to star in several prominent projects. He just didn't hire her for Brothers Grimm because they found an actress who was a better fit for the role
"Lucy Owens: [Lucy, thinking to herself while singing onstage] Ugh, This place is full of ex-boyfriends. No, don't worry, I'm not interested. there's another. Ugh, maybe Laura was right. I just can't make my mind up. I mean, they're nice boys. Well, most of them... but you know, sometimes you just wish a new face would pop up and... Oh! Well, now, look at that! Hands off, Maria. I saw him first. Is he really that shy, I wonder. Hmm. Well I suppose it's nice for a change. Ok, here goes..."
"Laura Owens: I mean, seriously, Lucy, all these fellas and you've never had anything even approaching, you know, well the madness, the release of a truly great passion. Lucy Owens: I know, I know. A big spiritual, physical hopping off the walls in a mad frenzy kind of thing! I mean come on Laura, for all your talk, what do you do? you haven't bothered to go out with anyone since last year, and the last one was that ridiculous bearded guy who drank Pernod. Laura Owens: Bernard. Lucy Owens: Oo, yeah. Ha ha ha! It's all in your head. You never do anything. Laura Owens: Yeah but I will someday, I know I will. What's the difference? Laura Owens, Lucy Owens: Cheers!"
