Launched on January 1, 2018, the "Time's Up" campaign emerged from Hollywood to combat workplace sexual harassment and abuse across industries. Supported by over 300 women in film, television, and theatre, including prominent stars and producers, the initiative followed the MeToo movement. A key component was a $13 million legal defense fund for survivors in vulnerable sectors. The campaign also addressed pay gaps and representation issues, advocating for transparent hiring and accountability, highlighting power imbalances based on gender, race, and class.
