Julia Fox revealed that she walked out of a project she had been working on “for five years” because of a new director’s racist mindset.

Fox, 34, took to Tiktok to blast the “white male” director on her unnamed project claiming he was against getting a diverse cast on the project.

“OK, so the craziest thing just happened to me,” she started.

“So I’ve been attached to a project for five years. I’ve given creative contributions to it, emotional contributions to it, it was like my baby.”

She continued, “I even brought on like a major, major A-list icon to play alongside me and everything was going great until this white man director came in.”

With further accusation, she claimed that the director “was trying to kick me off the project. Meanwhile I’ve been there for five years and he’s been there for a week. I had mentioned [to him] that I really thought it was important to have diversity in our lead cast,” which actually ignited a heated argument.

“He said, ‘Why? White people have it really hard too. And plus, diversity casting is like using Black people as puppets.’ Meanwhile, we’re actors, we’re all f*****g puppets, what are you talking about?”

“White people don’t have a duty to cast Black people because so many Black projects happen and Asian projects and nobody gets mad that there’s no white people in the cast,” she added of her statements.

“He said ‘Turn on Netflix, turn on any streamer, it’s all Black projects. Go to India, all the movies in India have all Indian people, nobody gets mad that they don’t have diversity.’”

“I said, ‘Honey, white people have been the default up until now. Let them have their all Indian movies,’” she added of her response.

“What are you talking about? Wake up, we are in 2024—this isn’t 2005 or something,” he responded.

To which Fox responded, “It was giving Proud Boy, it was giving All Lives Matter, it was giving white supremacy, and at that point I was done arguing. And I said ‘You know what, I can’t work with you, I’m done.’”

She also admitted that she'd “grown to love the people attached, the producers, the writers, the other actor in question, and I don’t want to blow up this whole thing for them but I just can’t believe I’m having conversations like this in 2024.”
