Mark Ruffalo Will Attend Oscars But Supports Oscar Boycott Movement
Mark Ruffalo, an Oscar nominee for Spotlight, will be attending next month’s Academy Awards, but wrote that he does support the position of the growing movement to boycott the event due to the lack of people of color nominated in the acting categories.
Ruffalo, who’s up for best supporting actor for the third time, posted on Twitter that he will be attending the ceremony “in support of the victims of clergy Sexual Abuse and good journalism,” referencing the subject matter of Spotlight. However, he also mentioned that he supports the boycott’s agenda, and believes that it should yield a “larger discussion about racism” in our society.
