Paramount Has Blacklist for Stars Deemed “Overtly Antisemitic” — World of Reel
It sure looks like the likes of Javier Bardem, Joaquin Phoenix, Emma Stone, and Mark Ruffalo won’t be making movies for Paramount in the foreseeable future.

So Chuck voted for Cuomo. I think we can safely ignore the ‘vote blue no matter who’ people from now on.
Q: It's election day in NYC. Did you vote for Mamdani or Cuomo?
