According to Variety, Karla Sofía Gascón plans to attend the Oscar Awards this 2025 with the support of Netflix, who would pay her expenses. This news comes after a series of controversies surrounding Gascón’s statements and tweets, which led to Netflix distancing themselves from her. But it seems that the streaming platform has now lifted the punishment and will let her attend the prestigious event.
Karla Sofía Gascón’s recent silence has finally served her well. After all the controversy surrounding her defense of ‘Emilia Pérez’, it appears that Netflix has decided to support her attendance at the 2025 Oscars. This move comes as a surprise, given that Netflix had previously removed their support for Gascón due to her statements, which were seen as diverting attention away from the film.
Karla Sofía Gascón would attend the 2025 Oscars
The controversy began when Gascón made a series of racist tweets and statements in interviews, which led to Netflix removing their support for her attendance at several award ceremonies, including the Critics Choice Awards, the Bafta Awards, and the Sag Awards. However, according to Variety, Netflix has now planned for Gascón to attend the Hollywood Dolby Theater, although it is not yet known if she will walk the red carpet or sit with her co-stars Zoe Saldaña, Selena Gomez, and director Jacques Audiard.
Netflix had previously distanced themselves from Gascón, refusing to support her in any interviews or media tours. In fact, if Gascón wanted to attend any ceremony, she had to pay for her own flight, lodging, and even makeup. But it seems that the streaming platform has now changed its stance, with Variety reporting that Netflix will pay for Gascón to attend the 2025 Oscars on March 2.
Apparently, Netflix will support the actress to attend the award
While it is not yet known under what conditions Gascón will appear at the Oscar 2025 Awards, sources close to the matter have confirmed that Netflix has planned for her to be present at the Hollywood Dolby Theater. Additionally, Gascón also plans to attend the César Awards in Paris on February 28, although it is not mentioned if Netflix will cover her expenses for this event.
So far, neither the representatives of Karla Sofía Gascón nor those of Netflix have confirmed or denied this information. However, if true, it will certainly make the Oscar ceremony interesting, especially if Gascón is nominated for ‘best actress’. The question on everyone’s mind is whether Gascón will use this opportunity to redeem herself or if she will add another scandal to her career.
Only time will tell how this will play out, but one thing is for sure – the 2025 Oscars will be an event to watch. With Gascón’s attendance, the ceremony is bound to be filled with drama and excitement. Will she make a speech that will redeem her, or will she continue to stir up controversy? The world will be watching to find out.
