- Susan Sarandon said at the Venice Film Festival press conference for her new film "The Echo Chamber" on Sunday that she has "still had movies taken away recently" over her outspoken support of Palestine.
- Sarandon added that "there are agencies that are telling people not to hire me," after being asked whether she thinks the narrative is changing in Hollywood regarding the conflict.
Why it matters: Sarandon's claim that agencies — not just individual producers — are steering casting decisions away from her suggests political screening of talent extends beyond headline controversies into ongoing career management, with even high-profile actresses reporting continued professional consequences for their public positions on the conflict.
