Actress Susan Sarandon said that she has been blacklisted in Hollywood due to her calls for a ceasefire in Gaza.
“I was fired by my agency, specifically for marching and speaking out about Gaza, for asking for a ceasefire,” Sarandon said Friday during a conversation with Reuters.
Her remarks came just before she was honored with the International Goya award at the Spanish Film Academy’s ceremony in Barcelona.
“It became impossible for me to even be on television,” Sarandon said. “I don’t know lately if it’s changed. I couldn’t do any major film or anything connected with Hollywood.”
Sarandon, who was dropped by the United Talent Agency in November 2023 following controversial remarks about the Israel-Gaza war, is an Academy Award winner and BAFTA recipient.
At an anti-Israel rally in New York City’s Union Square on Nov. 17, 2023, Sarandon said, “There are a lot of people afraid of being Jewish at this time and are getting a taste of what it feels like to be a Muslim in this country, so often subjected to violence.” …

A very old ugly leftist....
Never saw it??? Dude, TRHPS is one of the great movies of all time. It's been in continuous play somewhere in every major city for the last 50 years. What other movie can say that? I've seen it over 40 times. You should give it a look. It's great fun.
An old Hollywood actress needs some publicity, stat!
No one is blacklisting you over calling for a Gaza ceasefire, Susan. Dozens of celebrities called for a Gaza ceasefire. You’ve been blacklisted for the oldest reason in the book - you’re a woman who got old and whose looks have faded. Hypocritical Hollywood has no use for you anymore
Bring your props!
I’ve always had a thing for Helen Mirrin.
LOL...DeNiro!
One hot sex scene.
In Hollywood?
I doubt it...
“I’d love an instrumental version”
++++
Paging Slings and Arrows.
Wally_bert wants an instrumental from movie Team America for the Montage Song, for working out. Lots of thump and rhythm.
I love you guys! Sorry for calling you ‘mushroom’. I saw ‘rlmorel’ and thought morell mushrooms.
If you’re not on Slings and Arrows ping list, aka Hopalong Ginsberg, you should be. Outstanding instrumentals.
Exactamente.
Due to your vehemence, I’ll take your advice under consideration! LOL
Nah! It’s because she’s old and irrelevant. No one wants to see or hear her on the screen.
I might have been on that list.
Hell, your surrender position was right down the party line…blame something else Susie…maybe the clock?🤡🤡🤡
“Ready for my close up, Mr. DeMille”
I have all of the ‘Downton’ DVDs. I think it’s time for a BINGE before I get busy in the garden for the season. ;)
The stand-alone movies were also terrific.
I didnt say out of work, LEADING. Those ladys were / are largely part of ensemble casts, not carrying the movie / tv show.
When I saw this movie in the theater, we had no idea what to expect. when we saw that cheesy opening, I thought for sure I had made a mistake.
But not to far into it, me an my buddy were in tears and could barely breathe from laughing!
And that specific scene-the look on the puppet’s face!
