actors virtue signalling, im guessing shes not part of the AIPAC/jewish crowd in the elite hollywood circles.
Are actors not allowed to have opinions about genocide? I don't get this
I dunno, bringing a giant media spotlight to a dangerous mission seems pretty darn useful to me
As opposed to singer song writer Angelina Jolie? Or Broadway play and opera singer Angelina Jolie?
Did we forget who she is? Have younger generations no knowledge of her existence?
Honestly feel like she hasn't done anything particularly visible in over a decade. Days of her constantly being in movies a lot of people would watch are 15+ years ago.
I think she just got bored of doing mainstream movies. Definitely has enough money that she doesn't have to anymore.
IIRC she had a cancer scare and put the brakes on her career to heal. I don’t care for Hollywood elite but as a human everybody should be allowed to focus on health.
im pretty sure she has been in recent movies, like malieficient, ETERNALS, she seems pretty okay not be lead in most of them.
Eternals was DoA, through no fault of hers. People just didn't like it and it didn't do very well. Maleficient was 2014, hence my opinion that she stopped being in movies that people see a decade ago. Maleficient was pretty much the last big one.
That actually reminds me I haven't seen Maleficient. I should watch it, it seems fun.
I think she directed one or two movies recently
Fair enough, but that doesn't give her as much visibility or star power as she used to command.
I can legitimately see how younger folks might not get exposed to her much these days if they don't watch older movies.
It's ok, worth watching once IMO

Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed.
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF OCTOBER 19 2025
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
