Karla Sofía Gascón has apologised after resurfaced tweets about the Muslim faith and George Floyd protests sparked backlash online.
Gascón – whose work in Netflix film Emilia Pérez has made her the first publicly trans actress to receive Oscar and BAFTA nominations – issued a statement on the matter today (Friday, 31 January 2025).
“I want to acknowledge the conversation around my past social media posts that have caused hurt,” the 52-year-old said.
“As someone in a marginalised community, I know this suffering all too well and I am deeply sorry to those I have caused pain.
“All my life I have fought for a better world. I believe light will always triumph over darkness.”
