Photo / APScott Rudin says he's "stepping back" from film and streaming projects, along with his Broadway productions, as the fallout continues for one of the entertainment industry's most powerful and prolific producers following renewed accusations of bullying. In a statement on Tuesday, Rudin said he would use the time to "work on personal issues I should have long ago". Rudin, who has many projects in various stages of development, didn't otherwise specify what "stepping back" entailed. On Saturday, Rudin said his work on Broadway would for now be filled by others, including those already at work on those productions. Current Broadway shows produced by Rudin include The Book of Mormon, To Kill a Mockingbird, West Side Story and the upcoming revival of The Music Man.
