Susan Sarandon Says Still Losing Roles over Gaza Stance

The actress says major studios and agencies still avoid her after pro-Palestine remarks, even as she says public opinion has shifted.

  • On Sunday, Oscar-winning actress Susan Sarandon told a Venice Film Festival press conference she continues to lose studio roles because of her public support for Palestine.
  • Following her 2023 dismissal by agency UTA, Sarandon felt shunned by the industry for advocating a ceasefire in Gaza, resulting in fewer work opportunities.
  • Defying industry warnings, director Andrea Pallaoro cast Sarandon in his new romantic drama 'The Echo Chamber', co-starring Luca Marinelli and Alicia Vikander.
  • Despite feeling welcomed internationally, Sarandon claimed that positions in her industry held by Zionists continue to block her hiring despite shifting public narratives.
  • Sarandon's experience reflects broader Hollywood tensions, including Paramount's accusation that Mark Ruffalo used 'antisemitic tropes' criticizing the Paramount-WBD merger and its backer Oracle.
