"I think it feels like a sea change. It is about the abuse of power and it's not just (Hollywood) but it's clearly across other areas and other workplaces," Branagh said on the show "Lorraine". "I think it's a horrible, horrible wake-up call to what has never been acceptable and never can be acceptable and may now, in some profound way, I hope, change for the better," he added.
