Power and influence goes a long way. Consider this.

Imdb give Weinstein 331 credits as a producer, which is evidence of the enormous amount of influence he has accrued and the vast number of people he has worked with over the last four decades.
Other producers respect his opinion. Don't employ her would go a long way in Hollywood.

Producers are the ones who make the money available for films to be made they can easily be scared off by another producer who they believe to be more knowledgeable of the actor/actress. e.g. "don't invest in that film unless she/he is replaced, they'll cost you a fortune in delays as they are prima donnas!"

That is the reality of Hollywood.
