The Wild Horse Nine actor had been due to appear on stage in The Music Critic in Tel Aviv – but pulled out over PR firm’s ‘unacceptable and untenable’ attribution of statement
They couldn’t just be proud and content with having a major actor visiting their country, they just had to lie about him proclaiming to be Israel’s #1 dick rider. Greedy. He also shouldn’t have planned to go to begin with.
He has a pretty good reason for being there in the first place. There is nothing wrong with having a good enough reason to go there. As long as you aren’t a coward about it.
The article explains well what happened and i believe it shows his integrity.
If you don’t believe me then keep scrolling the comments here to find out why he had a good reason to be there in the first place.
A willingness to honor your commitments is not something we discourage. And not allowing yourself to be used to promote and be promoted by a terrible regime by sacrificing something you have committed to, openly and transparently is also something we should probably take good note of.
I have no idea what you are referring to. This quote seems pretty clear he was happy to perform in Israel.
Malkovich, who is a leading Oscar contender for his role in Martin McDonagh’s Wild Horse Nine, was due to appear in The Music Critic, a theatrical-musical satire composed by the Jewish violinist Aleksey Igudesman, in Tel Aviv’s Charles Bronfman Auditorium on 13 April.
I couldn’t give two shits about what it means to him. It is his act of going to Israel and star in a show which is important here. You can rationalise anything with words, but in the end it comes down to what you do, your actions not words.

I replied to the wrong comment and can’t find it now. I clicked on a comment that was similar
That reason was shit?
“It’s a chance to share storytelling with Nazis”
That’s not the one, keep looking
He was just going to star in a show. That is as bad a reason as they come for going to Israel at the present time.
If you read the comment im referencing then that is quite the simplification of what his trip meant to him
