A producer of Jared Leto: Hollywood's Dark Secret believes it will be "very difficult" for him to land another major movie role in the wake of the documentary.
The 54-year-old singer-and actor has denied the allegations contained in the documentary - in which 10 women told how they met the Thirty Seconds to Mars frontman between 2002 and 2016, and detailed his alleged predatory behaviour - but Jessca Sartenaer believes there will be a major impact on his screen career, even if he is able to continue with music.
Noting this isn't the first time Leto has been accused of sexual misconduct, Jessica told Deadline: “People haven’t been paying attention.
“I feel like it will be very difficult for him to ride this one out. People are [now] really paying attention, and I just don’t see how he could be attached to another Hollywood project. However, I think his music career is maybe separate from that. He’s still got some diehard Thirty Seconds to Mars fans.”
Executive producer Mark Radford thinks the response to the documentary will be a "bellwether" moment for the industry.
He said: "The Jared Leto case is a bellwether on where we are on the MeToo movement.
“There has been a lot of pushback in that area, and how the industry responds to the allegations about Jared Leto will tell us where the industry — both music and film — stands when serious allegations are made against one of their most powerful people.”
