It gave rise to the #MeToo Movement in Hollywood with cases against many influential and powerful men coming up. In 2017, Harvey was made to step down from his company. In February 2020, he was found guilty of two out of the five felonies. The movie mogul is now a convicted rapist, sentenced 25 years of imprisonment.
