LONDON - Anna Kendrick revealed donating the profits she made from her Netflix’s movie about a real-life serial killer, Woman of the Hour. The Twilight star appeared on Crime Junkie AF podcast where she opened up about not keeping a single penny from the money she received from directing the film. Anna further shared that all of the produced amount has been given to RAINN (Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network) and the ‘National Center for Victims of Violent Crime’, as an act to support survivors of sexual abuse and violence. “This was never a money-making venture for me,” said the 39-year-old. She concluded with explaining that the movie centered around such genre that made her feel ‘gross’ and for that reason she decided to contribute for a good cause.
On the contrary, the founder and president for RAINN, Scott Berkowitz, stated: “We’re so grateful to Anna Kendrick for her support of RAINN and all survivors, and for being a compassionate storyteller when it comes to raising awareness of sexual violence.” “Her donation will help us continue to provide free, 24/7 support through RAINN’s National Sexual Assault Hotline,” he added. Moreover, Anna Kendrick recently made a horrific revelation of surviving an abusive relationship for 7 years.
