Matt Damon has come under fire for his comments about the ongoing discussions on sexual abuse allegations in Hollywood for the second time in a week.

The Oscar-winner is now facing controversy after appearing to suggest that the men in Hollywood who are not facing sexual abuse allegations are not getting getting enough acknowledgement.

When asked by the publication whether he’d consider working with someone who’d been named in the continuing allegations, Matt claimed this was something he’d decide on a “case-by-case basis” depending on “what’s the story here”, before reiterating that he has not been involved in any sexual misconduct.

Matt’s latest comments have gone down like a lead balloon on Twitter:

Matt actor previously backtracked on claims he had known nothing about the accusations against Harvey Weinstein prior to actresses coming forward with their stories earlier this year.

He also spoke out to address rumours he’d been responsible for “shutting down” a story that would have blown the lid off the movie mogul’s misconduct.

Weinstein has faced a string of sexual assault and sexual harassment accusations, but has “unequivocally denied” any allegations of “non-consensual sex”.
