According to US media the new indictment will include testimony from actress Annabella Sciorra, known for her star turn in the hit television series "The Sopranos." Once one of the most powerful men in Hollywood, Weinstein has been accused of harassment and assault by more than 80 women, including stars such as Angelina Jolie and Ashley Judd.
