Uma Thurman has expanded upon comments she made about sexual harassment.
The Oscar-nominated actress took to Instagram Thursday to not only wish her fans a happy Thanksgiving but also to call out Harvey Weinstein.
Thurman worked with Weinstein when she starred in the 1994 film "Pulp Fiction," which was the first film financed by Weinstein's then-company, Miramax.

"I said I was angry recently, and I have a few reasons, #metoo, in case you couldn’t tell by the look on my face," Thurman continued, referring to a recent Access Hollywood interview in which she was asked about sexual harassment in Hollywood.
Thurman, 47, concluded, "I feel it’s important to take your time, be fair, be exact, so… Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! (Except you Harvey, and all your wicked conspirators – I’m glad it’s going slowly – you don’t deserve a bullet) -stay tuned."

Thurman never said explicitly that Weinstein ever sexually harassed her. ABC News reached out to a rep for Thurman to clarify her remarks but didn't immediately hear back.
Still, she joins a chorus of men and women in Hollywood who've criticized the disgraced producer after dozens of women — including Oscar winners Angelina Jolie, Gwyneth Paltrow and Mira Sorvino — have come forward alleging that the movie mogul sexually harassed them. Other women have claimed Weinstein sexually assaulted them.
Weinstein's representatives responded to Thurman's post in a statement to ABC News today.
"Any allegations of nonconsensual sex are unequivocally denied by Mr. Weinstein," the statement read. "Mr. Weinstein has further confirmed that there were never any acts of retaliation against any women for refusing his advances. Mr. Weinstein obviously can’t speak to anonymous allegations, but with respect to any women who have made allegations on the record, Mr. Weinstein believes that all of these relationships were consensual."

Thurman said: "I don't have a tidy soundbite for you because I have learned — I am not a child — and I have learned that when I've spoken in anger I usually regret the way I express myself.
"So I've been waiting to feel less angry and when I'm ready, I'll say what I have to say," the actress told a reporter.
