Gascón’s resurfaced social media posts rattled online fans, with one person pointing out on social media that the 52-year-old is “the star of a movie that is campaigning on its progressive values. You really gotta laugh.”
E! News has reached out to Gascón’s reps for comment and has not heard back.
But this isn’t the only controversy Gascón has been involved in. Her apology comes one day after she denied speaking poorly of fellow Oscar nominee Fernanda Torres, which violates Academy Awards policy. During a Spanish interview with Brazilian newspaper Folha de S. Paulo, the former alleged that there had been an online campaign to “discredit” her team’s work.
