Susan Sarandon Says Hollywood Used Her As An 'Example Of What Not To Do'

Susan Sarandon is seemingly lamenting the loss of her Hollywood career after her pro-Palestine remarks led to her agency dropping her.

At a New York pro-Palestine rally, the famous actress made some controversial remarks about Jews, which she later apologized for.

Despite industry backlash, Susan Sarandon remains active, supporting humanitarian causes in Gaza and other social issues, like migrant rights and gun violence.

In a recent interview with The Sunday Times, Sarandon shared her concerns about her future in Hollywood after her outspoken comments at a pro-Palestine rally last November led to United Talent Agency, run by Jewish CEO Jeremy Zimmer, dropping her.

Reflecting on how the controversy has significantly impacted her career, Sarandon shared: "I was dropped by my agency, and my projects were pulled. I've been used as an example of what not to do if you want to continue to work."

She also noted that since last November, "there are so many people out of work who have lost their jobs as custodians, as writers, as painters, as people working in the cafeteria, substitute teachers who have been fired because they tweeted something, or liked a tweet, or asked for a ceasefire."

When asked if she believes she'll be cast in major Hollywood films again, the actress replied, "I don't know. Not anything in Hollywood."

When will this dried up old slut just shut the fuck up???

Nobody cares. She got luck with Thelma and Louise.

She's done nothing but voice work for the past 15 years.

We should've dealt with her when we had the chance.

She also aged out of roles. Which is the fate of all women in Hollywood. So it wasn't just her politics.

And a good example it was.

Poor Sue has always been her own worst enemy. But what roles does she really think there are for a hag her age? The ones Meryl, Julia and Cate discard?

She could still play Dorothy Zbornak in a remake of the Golden Girls.

I still like her. Her comment from a long time ago about how things have to get really bad before a revolution happens - I hope that's true.

She's a great actress and speaks from her heart. She's passionate about her beliefs and injustice.

I think she gets a bad rap.

She used herself as an example of what not to do. But of course she takes no responsibility--she's merely a victim, a scapegoat.

She fucked about, and she found out.

Enjoy your workless sense of martyrdom, Susan.

If the revolution comes while Susan is still alive she'll watch it on MNSBC from her gated community with security guards earning minimum wage.

She should have been cancelled over her Putin apologism and blaming NATO for Russia invading Ukraine.

And her Twitter feed was her sharing a mix of Islamist accounts and literal Nazis.

She looks like Jeff Dunham’s Jalapeno Jose - on a stick.

I hate that rad look + outfits she puts on. It's like Oliver Twist with a dash of Che Guevara. It's putrid and ridiculous.

r12 you don't think it's problematic that in order for a post-revolution society of "happy" people to come about, otherwise happy people must be first lead to misery and made to suffer so they will feel compelled to participate in the revolution? It seems like it would be a shallow victory standing on the backs of the millions of miserable who where forced into deeper misery in order to get there.

Can't Susan get working playing a grandma on a Hallmark Channel movie?

Further proof that Sharon Stone being robbed for her deserved Oscar for her bravura turn in Scorsese’s masterpiece “Casino” was a travesty that has tainted the prestige and legacy of the Academy.

Sharon, still breathtaking and vibrant, remains A-list while this political charlatan isn’t fit for a laxative commercial.

The Academy should honor their platform and award this honor to the performer who deserved it all along: Sharon Stone.

As much as I like and met her in Miami regarding her ping pong hall venture (She was great) hasn’t she learned from Kanye and Mel to never disparage Jews ever! They sign all of your paychecks.

The minute a celeb opens their mouth about politics, they lose half their fans. Their opinion is no more important than yours. Her career deserves to be on the skids.

No one said their opinion was more important than anyone else's. And celebs have every right to express their opinions as citizens. And just as they have a certain cachet as celebs to their fans, likewise they may lose fans and even work.

The same person who posted the above — SO SCANDALOUS!!!! BURN HER AT THE STAKE!!! — also said Palestine and Lebanon will be gone soon and it can’t happen fast enough, and also said more Palestinian children should be dead, all of them should be.

Welcome to Trumpworld 2.0. And what a fun place it is, indeed.

Bumped into her at an event in LA about 20 years ago. I turned right at the end of a hallway while she was turning left, and we literally bumped full body into each other. I said, "Oh. you're Sunsan Sarandon" and she quickly replied, "No. I'm not doing autographs." I'm proud of myself because, I just as quickly replied, "I didn't ask for your autograph bitch!"

I don't think I was the first or last person to call her a bitch.

It started in 2016 with her constant attacks on Hillary Clinton and she hasn’t stopped. It’s more than Jews who are fed up with her shit.

I don’t think she has money issues like a normal person may run into but she did sue her former business managers for mismanaging her money and she lost a fortune on the ping pong venture.

That’s because your fans liked you for your acting abilities and roles, Sue, not for caring anything about your personal politics. Get a clue, finally.

A Trump enabler in 2016, she apparently didn’t learn her lesson. I don’t buy the “things gotta get worse before they get better” logic. At what cost? And, while I can’t deny that Netanyahu’s policies are misguided and harmful, it was a mistake to elevate the significance of Palestine at a time when a far greater threat of rising Fascism was looming.

by Anonymousreply 50November 12, 2024 2:34 PM

There are lots of people who look at Israel Palestine and want peace, an end to violence and the hostages released. But Sarandon has not called for that.

Her words: "There are a lot of people that are afraid, afraid to be 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."

Trying to be charitable, she got confused. Taking her words at face value, it's a threat of violence to a minority group. And again, why should JEWS IN AMERICA be held to account for what is happening in another country?

She is utterly vile and can wrap her anti Jewish racism up in pro Palestinian activism. Naturally her Twtter account shows she was attacking critics of the Assad regime, who murdered hundreds of thousands of Arabs including thousands of Palestinians.

The less we know about an actor in their personal life, the more we believe them when they take on a role. When I see Susan Sarandon on screen, I can’t separate her character from all the things the actress said in real life.
