00:00The question was for Julia and Andrew. Now that the MeToo hero and the Black Lives Matter

00:07are done, what do we have to expect in Hollywood? And what we lost if we lost something with

00:12the politically correct hero? Ayo Adebri's reaction to being excluded from an awkward

00:18interview question directed toward Andrew Garfield and Julia Roberts has gone viral.

00:22The trio sat down for an interview with the Italian outlet ArtsLife TV to talk about their

00:28film after The Hunt, when film journalist Federica Polidoro asked a question about the

00:33hashtag MeToo and Black Lives Matter movements, but only asked Garfield and Roberts to respond.

00:39She specifically asked the two what to expect in Hollywood after the MeToo movement and the Black

00:45Lives Matter are done. I know that that's not for me and I don't know if it's purposeful if it's not

00:49me, but I just am curious. I don't think it's done. It's not done. I don't think it's done at all. I

00:54think maybe hashtags might not be used as much, but I do think that there's work being done by

01:02activists, by people every day. That's beautiful, important work that's not finished. That's really,

01:07really, really active for a reason, because this world is really charged. And that work isn't finished

01:14at all. Garfield and Roberts showed their agreement as the Bear Star continued to answer the question.

01:19After Polidoro faced intense backlash online for excluding a debris, the journalist shared

01:25a lengthy statement on Instagram. She argued that she was not racist, stating that her own family is

01:30multi-ethnic, matriarchal, and feminist, with a significant history of immigration. The Italian

01:36journalist added that she reserves the right to seek legal protection against those attacking and

01:41insulting her online.
