Already a hugely successful and very bankable star as a performer, her first major film bagged a Netflix release and high critical acclaim and tells the true story of a woman who got matched with serial killer Rodney Alcala on a dating show in 1970s America. Anna Kendrick has now shared that the money she made from Woman of the Hour she actually donated to anti-sexual violence charities &#8211; namely RAINN and The National Centre for Victims of Crime.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking in an interview for SiriusXM, Anna Kendrick explained how it was at a film festival where distributors buy movies. &#8220;Eventually, Netflix bought the movie. But it wasn&#8217;t until til the week before TIFF [Toronto International Film Festival] I thought, &#8216;oh, the movie&#8217;s going to make money.&#8217; I went from being like &#8216;let me know when the movie happens&#8217; to being responsible for this. I was just making the movie and making the movie, and we barely made the deadline to get into TIFF.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">why aren&#39;t more people talking about this video of anna kendrick hm? <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/sJGLYxusOi\">pic.twitter.com\/sJGLYxusOi<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; chloe \ud83c\udf78 (@asimpIefavor) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/asimpIefavor\/status\/1851188510197243940?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 29, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;And then it was like, &#8216;oh, there&#8217;s gonna be money that&#8217;s exchanging hands&#8217; and I sort of asked myself the question &#8216;do you feel gross about this&#8217;? And I did.&#8221; Because of the true crime nature of Woman of the Hour and the general discourse surrounding the ethics of true crime, it&#8217;s clear Anna Kendrick was questioning how she felt about pocketing a massive salary off the back of the film when the issues are serious and affected real lives and victims.<\/p>\n<p>Anna continued &#8220;I&#8217;m not making money off the movie. The money has gone to RAINN and The National Centre for the Victims of Violent Crime.&#8221; RAINN stands for Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network.<\/p>\n<p>Props to Anna Kendrick &#8211; truly a woman of principle and a great director and those the profit donated from Woman of the Hour to those charities will have immeasurable impact . I am so happy for the success of this film and can&#8217;t wait to see what she does next.<\/p>\n<p><em>Woman of the Hour is available on Netflix now.
