How films, TV shows have been altered amid sexual harassment scandals

Dozens of TV shows and movies have been scrapped or altered in response to sexual harassment allegations made against some of the top actors, comedians and producers in Hollywood in recent months.

Following the October New York Times and New Yorker reports exposing decades of assault by former producer Harvey Weinstein, accusers have shared accounts of alleged misconduct involving nearly 100 men in the entertainment industry.

In most cases, action was swift once allegations were made public, with production companies pausing and shelving planned projects, talent being fired and, in some cases, scrubbed completely from credits and scenes.
