George Clooney has backed Mark Ruffalo in his row with Paramount after the studio accused him of invoking “antisemitic tropes”, with the Ocean’s Eleven actor calling it “ridiculous”.
Last month, Ruffalo criticised the links between tech company Oracle – which is owned by Paramount Skydance boss David Ellison’s father, Larry – and the Israeli military, describing the Israeli military’s actions as a “genocide” that “was built on an apartheid system of oppression powered by Oracle”.
