Actress Uma Thurman has broken her silence on the issue of sexual assault allegations concerning Harvey Weinstein, hinting that she herself was a victim of the Hollywood producer.
Thurman, who worked with Weinstein in films like Pulp Fiction and the Kill Bill series, slammed him in a Thanksgiving post over Instagram on Thursday, reports theguardian.com.

Alongside a photograph of herself as The Bride from Kill Bill, Thurman wrote “Happy Thanksgiving. I am grateful today, to be alive, for all those I love, and for all those who have the courage to stand up for others.”
“I said I was angry recently, and I have a few reasons, #metoo, in case you couldn’t tell by the look on my face. I feel it’s important to take your time, be fair, be exact, so… Happy Thanksgiving everyone! (Except you Harvey, and all your wicked conspirators — I’m glad it’s going slowly — you don’t deserve a bullet) — stay tuned Uma Thurman,” she added.
A Manhattan courtroom is once again hearing the same rape allegation against Harvey Weinstein, marking the third time a jury is being asked to decide the case.
Harvey Weinstein remains in prison after his 2020 conviction and a separate California case. He now faces a third New York rape trial, as his repeated attempts to escape accountability continue.
The Weinstein Company, once a leading film production house, collapsed shortly after Harvey Weinstein was publicly accused of multiple cases of sexual assault and harassment in late 2017.
