In April 2021,several employeeswho worked with Rudin accused him of intimidation and physical acts of aggression.
Everyone just knows hes an absolute monster, one said.
Now, Rudin admits, I was just too rough on people.
And if some people are really angry about it, theyll have the right to be angry about it.
He just needs enough support to get the four plays hes staging off the ground.
I knew why I was rough on people.
For a long time, it seemed like a price I could live with, he said.
If you dont inherently believe youre doing better than other people, why are you doing it?
There are better ways to make a living.
If his Broadway return proves successful, Rudin will consider returning to film, too.
He previously producedNo Country for Old Men, Lady BirdandThe Social connection.
I want to do this first, he said.
I want to see what it feels like.
