Legendary Hollywood star Goldie Hawn is opening up this week about a nasty confrontation that she had with disgraced producer Harvey Weinstein over a scrapped movie role in the hit movie Chicago.

While the 74 year-old Academy Award winner took fan questions on Andy Cohen’s “Watch What Happens Live,” one person asked her why she never finished working on Chicago with Madonna in the mid-1990s. Hawn replied by saying that the reason why had everything to do with Weinstein.

“Long story but to make it short-ish, Madonna and I were going to do it. I was working with Harvey Weinstein on it because he was producing,” Hawn began.

“Then I got the script a while later and it was for a 23-year-old. So I called him and I said, ‘You know, I’m not 23. Who is writing my part for a 23-year-old?'” added Hawn, who was in her forties at the time. “And he said, ‘Well, actually you can’t play 23.’ I said to him, ‘Oh, yeah I can actually. There’s digital, you can do my face, you can make me look 12 if you want to! I’m still dancing and singing so you’re not going to get off that way, Harvey. How else are you going to do it?'”

The Overboard actress went on to recall that she had told Weinstein that his decision to scrap her and replace her with a younger actress was “really underhanded.”

“We got into it. I met with them and the script was so bad I told them as a producer — not an actress — I wouldn’t touch this with a 10-foot pole. There’s no emotion in it,” Hawn explained. She added that the issue was put to rest with her walking away from the project with Weinstein still paying her, something that she described as “amazing.”

Not stopping there, Hawn said that she later called Weinstein to tell him, “I really, really didn’t like you.” However, she also remembered telling him that the fact that he still paid her was “honorable,” even though she never cared about the money in the first place.

Hawn also praised the movie Chicago, which went on to win Best Picture at the Oscars, saying that it was “fantastic.” She then said that she later bumped into Weinstein and told him that he “did the right thing” by hiring “the right people” for it.

“I went up to him afterward and I said, ‘Harvey, this is a great movie,’ and he said, ‘Goldie, you’ve got a lot of class,'” she continued.

Hawn concluded by saying that the situation was a “really tough one.”

“But I didn’t back down. That was something that I really said. ‘Nope, you’re not going to play that game with me,'” she finished.

Juda Engelmayer, a representative for Weinstein, responded by saying that he was pleased to hear Hawn’s story.

“I am glad to hear that there is a story about normalcy and even goodness as it comes to Harvey Weinstein,” Engelmayer told Fox News. “Goldie Hawn’s positive experience is demonstrative of how most of his films and interactions were conducted, and it is good that she felt it was appropriate to let us know. I’m sure Harvey would be glad too.”
