“I was surprised, obviously. I’ve known him since I was very young. I support the voices of the victims though, whatever they said. I’m an actor, I worked with him. It’s not about sharing my personal opinion of him. What those victims said needs to be heard just as much. And that’s the facts, that’s just the truth of it. And they can’t be squashed down because of something else. But it is also, you know, it is sad, too."

"Transparent and Amazon did their own investigations. It’s being handled the way it’s being handled. It’s very…strange. I know a lot of actresses [who] work with people [that] this is happening to, [but] we don’t have personal understandings of it. And I worked with him on two shows, too, so it’s kind of following me around. I hope it’s all handled legally, the way it should be, and taken into consideration."

David Cross and Jason Bateman have voiced their support for Tambor.
