Channing says that although they won't develop the story as long as it is related to the Weinstein Company, we all can believe in its powerful message of healing in the wake of tragedy.

Channing claimed all those women who have taken a stand for themselves in this scandal as true heroes and stated that they are the ones who are building an equitable world where everyone deserves to live.

On his social media account, Channing posted, "The brave women who had the courage to stand up and speak their truth about Harvey Weinstein are true heroes to us. They are lifting the heavy bricks to build the equitable world we all deserve to live in. Our lone project in development with TWC— Matthew Quick’s brilliant book, Forgive Me Leonard Peacock— is a story about a boy whose life was torn asunder by sexual abuse. While we will no longer develop it or anything else that is property of TWC, we are reminded of its powerful message of healing in the wake of tragedy. This is a giant opportunity for real positive change that we proudly commit ourselves to. The truth is out— let’s finish what our incredible colleagues started and eliminate abuse from our creative culture once and for all."
