I recall Miramax telling us they were a nightmare to work with and we should avoid them at all costs. This was probably in 1998, Jackson said. At the time, we had no reason to question what these guys were telling us but in hindsight, I realise that this was very likely the Miramax smear campaign in full swing I now suspect we were fed false information about both of these talented women and as a direct result their names were removed from our casting list.

Of course they deny it.

A Weinstein spokesman denied he had any influence over the casting for the films. Mr. Weinstein has nothing but the utmost respect for Peter Jackson. However, as Mr. Jackson will probably remember, because Disney would not finance the Lord of the Rings, Miramax lost the project and all casting was done by New Line, the statement said.

Mira's tweet after reading this:

Just seeing this after I awoke, I burst out crying. There it is, confirmation that Harvey Weinstein derailed my career, something I suspected but was unsure. Thank you Peter Jackson for being honest. Im just heartsick

Who do you believe CE?
