    Minnie Driver was "scared" of Harvey Weinstein during her early career

    The 55-year-old actress - who previously claimed the disgraced film producer tried to fire her from Good Will Hunting because she wasn't "sexy" - is "glad" Weinstein is now in prison, where he is serving a 16-year sentence after he was found guilty of several counts of sexual assault in 2022.


    Minnie also told how she was previously frightened of his "career-ending" influence.
