Former movie producer Harvey Weinstein, already indicted over two sexual assault allegations, was charged with two additional counts of predatory sexual assault in a new indictment Monday.

A New York judge postponed the start of the trial from next month to January 6, 2020.

Accusations against Weinstein, 67, propelled America’s # MeToo movement in 2017.
