Saved By The Bell's Dustin Diamond portrays Harvey Weinstein in vengeful music video
The actor who portrayed Screech takes on a different role
Saved By The Bell's Dustin Diamond plays alleged sexual abuser Harvey Weinstein in a new music video for TENLo's "Kill All Things."
In it, Diamond is featured as a cocaine-snorting hedonist who has a rather dark encounter with a nun played by actress Kelly Cunnigham.
Diamond's performance is a far cry from his years as the nerdy and loyal Screech on the '90s teen sitcom Saved By The Bell.
In-between doing shots and flaunting his arrogance, the Saved By The Bell star is lured to a hotel room by a devious Cunningham who appears sultry at first, but is really there for blood.
The video, directed by Joshua Mendez, pays homage to the recent allegations of sexual assault and rape by women, with Weinstein meeting a very finite end.
Since the news of Weinstein's indiscretions went public in October, dozens of actresses including Rose McGowan, Salma Hayek, Gwyneth Paltrow and Ashley Judd have accused the Hollywood producer of sexual abuse and harassment.
There's already a documentary in the works with the BBC about the 'open secret' surrounding Weinstein, titled simply Weinstein.
The upcoming documentary will feature interviews from accusers McGowan, Hayek, Paz de la Huerta and Asia Argento.
The takedown of Weinstein has since opened up the floodgates for women to speak out about sexual assault and harassment in entertainment.
