Getty Images Javier Bardem thinks the tide is turning in terms of speaking up for Palestine in Hollywood, telling a Cannes Film Festival press conference on Sunday that “everyone is beginning to realize … this is unacceptable.”
The Oscar-winning Spanish actor, who is at Cannes with his latest film “The Beloved,” was asked immediately if he has any fear of suffering consequences in his career for denouncing the war in Gaza. Bardem has been one of the most outspoken actors on the topic, taking the opportunity at the Oscars to say “Free Palestine” while presenting the award for best international feature film.
