Discussing whether he feels “cancelled” in the wake of his daughter’s allegations gaining public attention, the director said, “I feel if you’re going to be canceled, this is the culture to be canceled by. I just find that all so silly. I don’t think about it. I don’t know what it means to be canceled.”
He continued, “I know that over the years everything has been the same for me. I make my movies. What has changed is the presentation of the films. You know, I work and it’s the same routine for me. I write the script, raise the money, make the film, shoot it, edit it, it comes out. The difference is not is not from cancel culture. The difference is the way they present the films. It’s that that’s the big change.”
In 2018, Allen’s film “A Rainy Day in New York” was dropped by distributor Amazon Studios in the wake of the #MeToo movement, and new interest in Dylan’s allegations. The film eventually received a release in the U.S. in 2020.
On the allegations themselves, Allen maintained in his interview with Variety that Dylan’s claims are false.
When asked if he has seen Dylan or her brother, journalist Ronan Farrow, since the allegations, the filmmaker said, “No. Always willing to but no, no…”
