Eliza Dushku Speaks Out on Sexual Harassment, Firing and Retaliation on CBS’ ‘Bull’ for House Judiciary Committee

Eliza Dushku shared her experience facing sexual harassment on the set of CBS' "Bull" in front of a House Judiciary Committee.

In 2016, Dushku had a recurring role in Season 1 of “Bull” that was meant to become a regular role, but she alleges that she was fired from the show after accusing star Michael Weatherly of sexual harassment. She received a $9.5 million settlement from CBS, the Boston Globe reported in 2018.

“I was told that the role would be a six-year commitment to play a smart, strong leading lady, a confident high-powered lawyer meant to counterbalance the existing male lead, and that the role had been written specifically with me in mind,” Dushku said. “However, in my first week on my new job I found myself the brunt of crude, sexualized and lewd verbal assaults. I suffered near constant sexual harassment from my co-star. This was beyond anything I had experienced in my 30-year career.”

The male co-star “frequently referred to me as ‘legs.’ He would smell me and leeringly look me up and down. Off script, in front of about 100 crew members and cast members, he once said that he would take me to his rape van and use lube and long phallic things on me and take me over his knee and spank me like a little girl. Another time he told me that his sperm were powerful swimmers.”

The reason she won the lawsuit was because they had recordings from the outtakes of him saying these things.

UHH FFS this asshole is making the rounds again. Just a reminder for people who don't know or have forgotten that he is a complete wanker.

During an interview with Cote she described him as being inappropriate during in their first audition, while reading the script together, Weatherly unexpectedly went off-book, touched her face, and ad-libbed that she reminded him of Salma Hayek.

Also Jessica Alba does not talk about their engagement, only stating he should have known better. She was a naive 18 year old virgin in a show that could make or break her career and he was 30 and already established. She felt she never had a voice in the relationship.

Even thought Cote ended up doing the whole Ziva thing, I think it speaks to how women are expected to put up and shut up if they want a decent career in that industry at the time.

edited all these pics and good lord this is insane.

Anyway I drew more about your fic because I love it so bad and I need to work on more dynamic poses

The blonde lady is the companion, and the lady with the black hair is her bestie. I love to think that the companion has her own Terrence with a dynamic like Max and Caroline from 2 broke girls.

(Sorry if it's weird that I draw them so often, your fix has just really inspired me to draw)

NEVER APOLOGISE IM ACTUALLY OBSESSED WITH YOUR ART MY GODDDDD ITS SOOOO GOOD

Terrence in your style 🥺🥺🥺 that’s literally my boy!!! You made him look so handsome thank you so much!!! They all look so insanely good it’s actually criminal. All of them. Also your lovely OC is literally just me when it comes to giving advice #reletable

This is exactly what I love about leaving certain aspects in BB universe blank because each Companion is so unique and has completely different relationships and ahhh actually obsessed with this. What a friend group, want to know everything about them right now.

so… sharing is caring.
