Kerry Washington Opens Up About Personal and Professional Challenges

Kerry Washington reveals in her memoir that there were even more brutal scenes in the original script of Django Unchained, including her character being subjected to a terrifyingly brutal rape scene and running naked down the street to escape abuse. However, these scenes were ultimately cut, possibly due to Jamie Foxx's intervention. Washington praises Foxx for his leadership and generosity on set, crediting him for setting a great example.
