Sarah Jessica Parker has revealed she reported a โbig movie starโ for โbehaving inappropriatelyโ with her early in her career.
The Sex and the City star did not specify what project she was working on at the time.
Speaking on NPRโs Fresh Air radio program, Parker recalled how in the months after MeToo became a global conversation, she began โrecognizing countless experiences of men behaving poorly, inappropriatelyโ throughout her working life.
Parker explained how she would โpush it awayโ at the time and brush the behavior off so she could continue working.

โTo be honest, I donโt know why I either wasnโt courageous or more destroyed by some of the things that I was privy to, that I was on the receiving end of,โ she said.
She explained, โI mean, I had every right to say, โThis is inappropriate.โ I could have felt safe in going to a superior. And, in fact, I will say, when there was a situation with somebody and I did go to my agent, because I felt I was no longer able to convey how uncomfortable this was making me, how inappropriate it was โฆ within hours everything had changed. He said to them, โIf this continues, I have sent her a ticket, a one-way ticket out of this city [where she was shooting] and she will not be returning.'โ

Though she didnโt identify the actor, she noted, โThe nature of the person who I felt was really the instigator โ this was a grown man, a very big movie star and, you know, he was baked โ meaning his personality, it was cooked. He was a formed person and that wasnโt going to change. But I felt certainly better and safer, like I could finish what I had agreed to do.โ
She says that following the experience, things got better on set, though they werenโt great.
Still, she says, โI didnโt have to listen to jokes about me or my figure or what people thought they could talk me into doing,โ she said. โAll these men. All these men. That stopped.โ
