Guy Pearce wears ‘Free Palestine’ pin at Oscars



DUBAI: Australian actor Guy Pearce donned a pin in support of Palestinians at the 97th Academy Awards on Sunday.

On the red carpet, “The Brutalist” actor donned a pin of a white dove holding an olive branch with the phrase “Free Palestine” written on it.

A best supporting actor nominee for “The Brutalist,” Pearce has worn pins at several public appearances since last year.

Controversy occurred when Vanity Fair France photoshopped his pin out of a photograph taken of Pearce on the Cannes Film Festival red carpet in 2024.
