Javier Bardem is outspoken about his views, and he is expressing them sans fears of consequences.
But instead of backlash, the Dune star says he is receiving more acting offers after he spoke out.
This change, Bardem attributes to the changing of things, particularly in the younger generation.
“Everyone is beginning to realise — thanks to the younger generation, who are more aware of situations we’re experiencing quite directly on our phones and on other screens — this is unacceptable.”
“It cannot be justified, and there can be no reason, no explanation for this genocide,” he states.
“Therefore, I think what is happening is quite the contrary,” the actor says on the alleged Hollywood blacklist fears.
He further adds, “I believe that those who are drawing up the so-called blacklists will actually be exposed.”
“And they will be the ones suffering the so-called consequences, at least on a public and social level. And this is a major change,” he adds.
Similarly, Bardem previously told Variety that he’s “always felt that I have microphones and recorders recording my voice, and I have the right to denounce what I think is wrong.”
His remarks came at Cannes, where his new movie The Beloved was debuted and received a seven-minute ovation.
