Harvey Weinstein has been diagnosed with chronic myeloid leukemia, a type of bone marrow cancer. His spokesperson expressed concern over public speculation about his health and stated that no further comments will be made to respect his privacy. Weinstein's new trial, originally scheduled for November, is now expected to take place in early 2025. This follows a ruling by the New York Court of Appeals that overturned his 2020 rape conviction, citing errors in the original trial. Weinstein recently appeared in court in a wheelchair after undergoing heart surgery. He has faced multiple health issues, including hospitalization for diabetes and respiratory infections earlier this year.
