Mia Farrow reveals what she REALLY thinks about celebrities who work with ex Woody Allen after scandals

Mia Farrow continued to push back against her ‘vengeful woman scorned’ reputation by revealing she feels no ill will towards actors who decide to work with her estranged ex-partner of 11 years, Woody Allen.

‘I completely understand if an actor decides to work with him,’ the 79-year-old actress said on CBS Sunday Morning.

‘I’m not one who’d say, “Oh, they shouldn’t.”‘

When host Seth Doane asked if she was able to separate the experience as an actor in her 13 films with the 88-year-old filmmaker from their personal trials, Mia (born Maria) replied: ‘Oh yeah, yeah.’

Farrow felt understandably betrayed upon discovering Woody’s (born Allan Konigsberg) secret affair with her 21-year-old adopted daughter Soon-Yi Previn in January 1992 and, seven months later, publicly accused him of molesting her seven-year-old adopted daughter Dylan Farrow.

One week later, Allen – who was never charged or prosecuted – sued the Rosemary’s Baby alum for full custody of their son Satchel (now Ronan) and her adopted children Dylan and Moses.

In his 33-page decision in 1993, Justice Elliott Wilk rejected the controversial director’s bid for custody of all three children and called his behavior toward Dylan ‘grossly inappropriate’ while also rejecting the sexual abuse allegations.

In 1997, Woody married Soon-Yi and they adopted two daughters – 25-year-old Bechet Allen and 24-year-old Manzie Tio Allen.

And while 39-year-old Dylan stands by the allegations, her 46-year-old brother Moses publicly denied she was ever abused and alleged Mia had abused him in a 2018 WordPress post.

Some of Allen’s outspoken supporters have included Diane Keaton, Alec Baldwin, Scarlett Johansson, Cherry Jones, Bill Maher, Jude Law, Javier Bardem, Cate Blanchett, Gina Gershon, Jim Belushi, Juno Temple, Michael Caine, and Jeff Goldblum.

Kate Winslet, Drew Barrymore, Evan Rachel Wood, David Krumholtz, Greta Gerwig, Mira Sorvino, Rachel Brosnahan, Jeff Daniels, Peter Sarsgaard, Natalie Portman, Colin Firth, Hayley Atwell, Freida Pinto, Chloe Sevigny, and Marion Cotillard have said they won’t work with the four-time Oscar winner again.

Woody’s last American movie – A Rainy Day in New York – coincided with the #MeToo movement in 2019 and cast members Elle Fanning, Selena Gomez, Timothée Chalamet, Rebecca Hall, and Griffin Newman donated their salaries to support sexual assault organizations.

Last year, Allen fled to France to direct his 50th feature film Coup de Chance, which only earned $7.4M at the global box office despite decent reviews.

‘The fact that we’re even working now, that, to me, is success!’ the Golden Globe winner gushed.

‘I’m old, you know? I’m very good at doing nothing. It’s a gift. I’m endlessly entertaining to myself. I have good friends. I have no complaints.’
