Colin Firth has become the latest in a string of actors to distance themselves from Woody Allen in the wake of the Time's Up movement.

Firth, who appeared in Allen's 2013 film Magic in the Moonlight, made his position clear in a statement to The Guardian on Thursday.

"I wouldn't work with him again," he said.

The statement was given on the same day that Allen's adoptive daughter Dylan Farrow, who previously accused Allen of sexually assaulting her when she was 7 years old, gave her first interview about the alleged incident on CBS This Morning.

Woody Allen has since issued another statement re-iterating his previous denial.

Over the past week, though, a number of actors have publicly announced that they'll be donating their fees from Woody Allen movies to charity, while others have expressed their regrets at working with him.

Farrow, meanwhile, took to Twitter to thank Firth on Thursday evening.

Mashable has reached out to Woody Allen's representatives for comment.
