Whatever. Before these new allegations, Hollywood was still banging down his door (and not wanting to know what was going on inside):
Everyone in Hollywood has known about Bryan Singer for years. In addition to allegations of sexual misconduct, he was completely unprofessional on BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY. He left before filming finished. How was he punished? He was negotiating $10 mil in October to direct RED SONJA.

Bryan Singer is proof that Hollywood will overlook any wrongdoing as long as you're untalented enough.

Like jfc I am not someone who considers herself up on Hollywood and saw Bryan Singer trending and my first thought was, "Oh that rapist?"

Eek. What if he wins?
I wonder if Bryan Singer is going to show up to the Oscars or if he’s just gonna watch at home from an upside-down castle.
