Take Your Clothes Off

June 21, 2018 Blind Gossip

[Blind Gossip] We’ve told you before that this slimy actor/director has made some of the women on his set extremely uncomfortable.

Here’s another one.

There is a young actress who comes from a very famous acting family spanning several generations. You might not know her, but you definitely know her family.

A couple of years ago, just as she was starting her career, she worked on a small film with Slimy. She was over 18, but still approximately half his age. The part was so small that it was uncredited. She was flattered when he offered her a part in a second project. It was another small film but he gave her a bigger role… and started paying a lot of attention to her.

Too much attention.

She was doing a scene and he told her to take her clothes off. That wasn’t in the script. She refused. He told her that she needed to learn how to improvise. He went back and forth from being really nice to her to bullying and berating her to refusing to speak to her.

Sound familiar?

She finally did take her shirt off but was really upset about it. After they finished that day, he started texting her all these personal messages. She thought it was creepy and unprofessional. She was so confused and traumatized by the whole encounter that she told her mother that she decided to quit acting.

So her acting career was over just as it was starting.

Now, her mother is a famous actress. And, unfortunately, she knew exactly how her daughter felt.

Why? Because many years ago, a famous, now-disgraced producer in a bathrobe became forceful with her in a hotel room!

The mother managed to get away, but she was traumatized by the encounter. She told people in the industry what had happened… and was told to keep her mouth shut.

She suddenly found it more difficult to book jobs. He had threatened to ruin her career. Was he telling others not to hire her? Her acting career went from booming to tepid practically overnight and continued to suffer for years.

Determined not to let the same thing happen to her daughter, Mom is staying close to her and is trying to bring her into a project in which she is a principal. She is hoping that a positive experience will boost the daughter’s confidence and make her want to act again.

The daughter has a very unique, haunting look that alternates between quirky and gorgeous. She is really quite captivating onscreen, so we hope she comes back from this and doesn’t let one jerk ruin her career.

As for the slimy actor? He thinks that if he keeps a low profile, all the allegations against him will blow over.

Don’t count on it. The moms are talking. The girls are talking. None of them will ever forget what he did to them and how he made them feel.

Time’s Up, Slimy. And don’t you wear that button ever again!

    Mother, May I Sleep with Danger? was released after Palo Alto but it was probably filmed before. It was a * TV movie so there was probably no rush on its release. Palo Alto was a big deal to Franco as it was based on his book/teenage years. Behind the scenes are on YouTube. At the beginning there is confusion and a rush to get someone after Zoë pulls out, Emma Roberts steps in which was better as the film now had a slightly more famous persons name to it.

    James Franco with Rosanna Arquette’s daughter Zoe Sidel. Rosanna was cornered by Harvey Weinstein and her career hit the skids thereafter.

    My advice would be to keep talking and stay close to mom. Luckily she has a very influential family.

  25. SilentStar says

    June 21, 2018 at 9:18 pm

    I’m leaning towards Zoe Bleu Sidel, Rosanna Arquette’s daughter.

    Slimy actor/director: James Franco (The Institute)…I guess “you need to learn to improvise” is the line he thinks works for him.

    Bathrobe guy is of course Weinstein.

      100%. She gave an interview this week in which she said he was terrible at kissing, had bad breath and she was obviously uncomfortable talking about him. I hope he gets exactly what he deserves.

      June 23, 2018 at 3:23 am

      Hmm… She’s been acting actively in the last two years, and she just came out with a Netflix movie. Probably just hates James Franco, unsurprisingly.

    Young Actress: Zoe Bleu Sidel

    Producer In A Bathrobe: Harvey Weinstein

    She was uncredited in Mother, May I Sleep with Danger?, then starred in The Institute, both with James Franco

    • Bunniest says

      June 22, 2018 at 10:59 am

      Bingo!

      Why does Franco still get jobs? Is he praying to the same spirits protecting Woody Allen?

    • truebritt8 says

      June 22, 2018 at 4:06 pm

      Yep, Bingo! You are one smart Sadiebean!

    • lovetheblazer says

      June 22, 2018 at 5:34 pm

      Yup, I think “the moms are talking” is a clue meant to point to “Mother, May I Sleep with Danger.” You nailed it.

    Slimy Actor/Director: James Franco
    Young Actress: Zoë Bleu Sidel (Arquette)
    Her Mother: Rosanna Arquette
    Producer In A Bathrobe: Harvey Weinstein
    Zoë had an uncredited role in ‘Mother, May I Sleep with Danger?’, which Franco wrote and produced. She was due be one of the lead characters in ‘Palo Alto’ which was also written by and starring by Franco, however she dropped out and many attributed it to her break up with Jack Kilmer.. Franco plays a pedophile soccer coach who sleeps with her.

    • suzyQ888 says

      June 23, 2018 at 4:36 pm

      Sad to hear this. Franco got such an inflated ego & power hungry, which unfortunately will do this to a man who doesn’t have the fortitude to not take advantage of people. Aside from the ( likely true) stories that have come out, what pisses me off even more is out he is more concerned w/ the career he’s been duping people into giving him. The PR flood of “Franco caught on the beach w/ girlfriend” after a decade of carefully crafting his bachelorhood & the “is he gay or straight” persona…

    Must be Mr. Artsy himself, James Franco.

    As for the young actress, I am wondering if it could be Stella Banderas.

    I’m guessing maya Hawke. Mom is uma Thurmond. Sicko in the bathrobe is Harvey Weinstein. The slimy director could be Brett Ratner? Idk

      Not Brett Ratner.

    Gotta be James Franco. He is such a skeeve. I’m thinking the actress might be Zoey Deutch. She was in Franco produced “Why Him” and “Disaster Artist”. Her mom is Lea Thompson who was in the “Back to the Future” movies.

    Advice? Learn self defense, both physically & emotionally. I had a male co-worker I considered a friend. One day after too many drinks at lunch he cornered me , tried to kiss me & unbutton my blouse. That night his wife asked why his cheek was red & swollen. I had learned early on how to take care of myself – and never hesitated to do so.

    James Franco&Harvey Wenstein for the pervs, but no clue about the actress. My guess was Bridget Fonda, but she only has a son.

    I would tell the daughter to go out for smaller roles to gain experience and when she rebuilds her confidence go out for major roles. There are some good people in Hollywood who genuinely want to just work.
