πŸ’₯ β€œI Regret Working With Them” β€” At 55, Uma Thurman Names the 5 Men She HATED the Most! #UntoldStories

She’s fierce, iconic, and known for slicing through bad guys with a katana in Kill Bill. But now, at 55, Uma Thurman is slicing through Hollywood egos β€” revealing the five men she β€œhated” working with the most in a bombshell interview that fans did not see coming.

During a surprise appearance on the popular podcast Behind The Velvet Curtain, Uma left jaws on the floor when she peeled back the glamorous curtain of her career to reveal what she called β€œthe most emotionally exhausting experiences” she’s had β€” all tied to five powerful men in the entertainment industry.

β€œNot every co-star or director is a pleasure,” she said with a sharp smile. β€œSome of them made me dread going to work.”

So who made the list? Buckle up β€” it’s not what you’d expect.

β€œI Had To Smile Through It” β€” Uma Gets Real About Her Worst On-Set Experiences

The episode, released just two days ago, was intended to focus on Uma’s comeback in an upcoming drama series. But about halfway through, the host asked a spicy question: β€œLooking back, were there any people you truly hated working with?”

Uma paused. Sipped her tea. And said, β€œLet’s go there.”

Here are the 5 men Uma Thurman says she’ll never forget β€” for all the wrong reasons:

Harvey Weinstein
β€œHe’s not just someone I hated working with. He’s someone I feared.”
Uma has previously spoken about her traumatic experiences with the disgraced producer. But this time, she went deeper.

β€œHe stole my voice, my confidence, my safety. I will never forgive him.”
Fans applauded her for continuing to speak up and demand accountability, even years after Weinstein’s fall from grace.

Quentin Tarantino
β€œThis one hurts to say. He’s brilliant β€” but he crossed the line.”
Uma and Quentin created magic together in Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill, but Uma has admitted before that their relationship became strained, especially after a near-fatal car crash on the Kill Bill Vol. 2 set.

β€œHe pushed me past my limits. There were moments I felt more like a stunt dummy than a human being.”
While she credited him for shaping her legacy, she didn’t mince words: β€œRespect was often missing.”

Ethan Hawke
β€œWe were married. That doesn’t mean we were good for each other professionally.”
Uma and Ethan, once considered Hollywood’s golden couple, had a turbulent marriage that reportedly spilled over into their joint film project Tape.

β€œHe was competitive. Dismissive. There were times I felt invisible on set.”
She emphasized she’s since moved on, but admitted she β€œhated” the dynamic when they worked together.

A Famous Director (Unnamed)
β€œHe told me I wasn’t sexy enough to lead. That I should β€˜stick to weird roles.’”
Uma didn’t name him, but gave enough hints β€” including a 2000s thriller flop and a β€œEuropean accent” β€” that fans are already speculating.

β€œHe humiliated me in front of the crew. I still carry that shame.”

The internet has been playing detective ever since.

β€œLet’s just say the public adores him. But he was a nightmare to work with.”
Uma refused to name this man directly but said he had a reputation for being charming on screen and cold as ice off it.

β€œHe talked over me. Mocked me. Even questioned if I deserved the role.”

Some fans guessed it could be someone from her rom-com era β€” others think it’s an actor from her lesser-known European co-productions.

Internet EXPLODES: β€œShe Said What We Were All Wondering!”

Once the interview clip hit social media, it went wildly viral. The hashtag #UmaUnfiltered shot to the top of X (formerly Twitter), and fans had thoughts:

β€œShe finally confirmed what we all suspected about Tarantino. And maybe Hawke too πŸ‘€β€ β€” @FilmBuffQueen

β€œOMG who’s the β€˜Nice Guy’ actor? My trust in Hollywood is crumbling πŸ˜©β€ β€” @MovieGossipGirl

β€œI’m in awe of Uma’s strength. Telling these stories at 55? ICON.” β€” @SoftCinemaFan

Reddit threads exploded with theories, and TikTok creators began splicing together old interviews for clues. Some are even analyzing Uma’s past red carpet appearances to spot β€œfake smiles” next to the men in question.

A Legacy Not Just of Talent β€” But Truth

Uma’s career has spanned nearly four decades, and while she’s known for her elegance, she’s also battled to be heard. From fighting for more complex roles to speaking up about abuse in Hollywood, she’s carved a path that’s just as powerful off-screen as on.

β€œThese five men didn’t break me. But they sure tried to silence me,” she said.

β€œNow, I get to speak freely. And I hope that helps someone else do the same.”

Fans have praised Uma for balancing grace with raw honesty. While many celebrities choose to protect their legacy by keeping quiet, Uma is choosing truth β€” even if it shakes the foundation.

Did We Know This All Along?

Some of this isn’t brand-new β€” especially her complicated history with Weinstein and Tarantino β€” but what’s different now is how unfiltered Uma is. She no longer softens her pain to make others comfortable.

In a Hollywood still reckoning with its past, this kind of honesty matters more than ever.

So, Who Was the β€œNice Guy” Actor? And Will She Ever Drop His Name?

Fans are hoping there’s a part two to the interview β€” and you can bet everyone will be listening.
