Kate Beckinsale has alleged that Mark Ruffalo didn’t respond to her after she was ‘fired by her agent’ for ‘liking’ a social media post about the conflict in Gaza.
The Van Helsing star reportedly made a series of claims on a video shared by the Hulk actor in which he endorses a film called Palestine 36.
Directed by Palestinian filmmaker Annemarie Jacir, the historical drama focuses on the Arab Revolt in Palestine from 1936 to 1939.
In the video, Ruffalo says: “It further fills in the history of the Palestinian people. Their plight, their oppression, their land theft.
“All of these histories that have been kept from American people and the world need to be seen and understood so we understand what’s happening in the world.”

In now-deleted comments obtained by Entertainment Weekly, 52-year-old Beckinsale penned: “It must be so nice not to be fired by your agent for liking a post about a ceasefire and not supporting the murdering of children.”
She added: “I guess having a penis in Hollywood really counts for a lot.
“You’ve not been fired by the same agent that I had and she sent me a gift the week before so we didn’t have any beef.
“But I liked a post about a ceasefire and I’ve got fired on the same day as Susan Sarandon was fired, two days after the end of the strike after nine months of none of us being able to work at all.”

Beckinsale mentioned that she was dealing with grief after the loss of her mother in 2025 and her stepfather a year earlier.
“I was dealing with the fact that on top of my mother having been told she had six weeks to live with brain cancer, and being [a] carer for both of them, the day before my stepfather had had a catastrophic stroke on top of two types of cancer,” she wrote.
“Which led to his death and I was preparing to fly to England to bring him back so that I could take full care of him and I was fired in two sentences after 12 years of friendship with my agent.
“And yours who is very close to her elderly parents and definitely knew what I was dealing with, alone.”
Although Beckinsale didn’t mention the agent by name, the British actor claimed she messaged Ruffalo ‘about this months ago but you ignored me’.

She then clarified in a separate comment that ‘I’m okay with him ignoring me’ but that there was ‘male privilege even in the good guys’.
“It is such a given that of course I did not get a response and I really and truly support Mark Ruffalo and everything he is doing,” Beckinsale said.
“But no I@will [sic] not get a response not here and not ever.
“I sent a message to Mark months ago and he ignored it.
“There is absolutely no reason why he would respond to it now.”
She said she was ‘not even blaming Mark for this’, but she is still ‘noticing it’ in general.
Ruffalo has not yet responded to Beckinsale’s claims.
