RIDLEY SCOTT’S ACTIONS ARE A BLUEPRINT FOR HOLLYWOOD

Empire’s editor-at-large Helen O’hara salutes the immediate action taken on All The Money In The World

MANY OF HISTORY’S lauded geniuses were assholes. John Paul Getty, for example, became the richest man in history by playing tribal rivalries, screwing over partners and pinching pennies long past the need to save a buck. Yet it’s possible to do the right thing and still be successful. And with All The Money In The World, Ridley Scott has found one such way. From the ashes of the Kevin Spacey scandal, Scott has pulled a film untainted by his former star’s abusive behaviour, and he did it without compromising on quality.
