When the news of Anne Heche dating Ellen DeGeneres came out, she had shared that the news cost her a movie role. She said, “I was fired from a $10 million picture deal and did not see the light of day in a studio picture.” Anne was set to star alongside Harrison Ford in a romantic film called, Six Days, Seven Nights.
The producers had a change of heart when they heard the news and felt that the movie would not resonate with the audience with Anne being Lesbian. However, her costar was supportive of Anne, and that didn’t stop her from losing the role.
She also claimed that she became a patient zero in cancel culture thanks to her romance culture with Ellen DeGeneres. During her recent interview, “This wasn’t a long-term love affair. This was a moment in my life when I was given the glory of being able to stand up for what I believe in and have since I was a kid.”
The actress also revealed that she has never regretted her decision and said, “Those repercussions that happened, are to me what has created a part of the change. I’m a part of it. It is a badge of honor.”
Anne had the courage for herself and some other actors who may be going through something similar. And she has proven that it is possible to have a career even if, in the short term, such disclosures might happen.
