American actress Susan Sarandon has claimed she is still losing movie roles because of her outspoken support for Palestinians, nearly three years after she was dropped by talent agency UTA following controversial remarks at a pro-Palestinian rally.

The Oscar-winning actress, 79, made the claim at the Venice Film Festival while promoting her latest film, The Echo Chamber.
