The organisation behind the Oscars has voted to expel Harvey Weinstein following numerous allegations of sexual assault made against the film producer.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences said its board "voted well in excess of the required two-thirds majority" to expel him.
Its members include Hollywood figures such as Tom Hanks and Whoopi Goldberg.
Weinstein's films have received more than 300 Oscar nominations and won 81.
