THEIR WHY
Known worldwide for their roles as the timeless lovers in Romeo and Juliet (1968), Olivia Hussey and Leonard Whiting have stepped into a new role as advocates against sexploitation. Decades after their iconic performances, they have bravely come forward with a lawsuit against Paramount Pictures, shedding light on the exploitation they faced as teenagers in the film industry.
Now, through the Victim, Survivor, Hero Foundation, they are committed to supporting others who have endured similar trauma. Their mission is not only to seek justice for themselves but to empower victims on their journey from suffering to heroism, ensuring that their voices are heard and their strength recognized.
