Following political remarks made as an Academy Awards presenter in 1993, Richard Gere faced bans from both the Oscars and China. Despite this setback, he demonstrated remarkable resilience by making a triumphant comeback to the Oscars in 2003 and once more in 2013. Although his career encountered hurdles after 1993, Gere has recently surged back with a 2023 film and has three forthcoming projects in the pipeline, notably including Paul Schrader's "Oh, Canada."

Didn’t the Oscar’s ban Will Smith “less” time for assault?

@bigfootwalker5399 25 күн бұрын

Will Smith didn't slap a Chinese

Offending China is far more serious unfortunately. Many of Hollywood’s blockbusters do well in China and they would lose a huge cut of money if they didn’t do something. This was a gesture of goodwill to China to make sure they don’t flat out burn bridges with Hollywood, if they support Richard’s stance. It’s all about the money. It always will be when it comes to the Oscars. Will didn’t lose the Oscars money with the slap. If anything it made more people pay more attention to the Oscars as it went viral.

The same Oscars where John Wayne once tried to assault a woman on stage and had to be held back and which game an award to Roman Polanski in absentia when he had fled the country to escape prosecution for sexual abuse of a girl.

@robbymounce5764 truthfully not missing all that much, he was an OK actor who was over hyped by now senior citizen women for being a good looking man and 1 movie that they loved (pretty woman) which also wasn't as great as they pretend it was, but being a romance movie with a good looking man. Truthfully because of all that it forced him down every one's throat at the time to capitalize on his moment but people quickly realized his mediocrity.
