Challenges in Hollywood Career

The very first November, I was fired by my agency,

um, specifically for marching and speaking out

about Gaza, for asking for a ceasefire,

and it became impossible for me to even be on

television. S- I don't know lately if it's changed, but,

um,

and I

couldn't do any major film, um,

anything connected with, uh,

you know, Hollywood.

Um, I found agents ultimately in

England and in Italy,

and I have worked there. I just did a film in Italy,

and I did a play at

the Old Vic for f- uh, a number of months.

But I know that, you know, this Italian director that just hired me,

he was told not to hire me, so that's still recently.

He didn't listen, but he had that-- they had that conversation.

So, um,

right now I kind of specialize in tiny films with

directors who have never directed

and, um, you know, are independent, in

independent films and films that are, uh, in,

in Europe or in, in Italy and, you know.

So that's the main reason I haven't been, been working as,

as much.
