Sean Penn has threatened to destroy the Academy Awards if Zelensky is not invited to speak at the ceremony

Sean Penn, award-winning actor and co-founder of CORE, discusses his time in Ukraine and advocates for Ukrainian President Zelensky to speak at the Academy Awards.

Days after filming scenes for his documentary on Russia’s invasion in Kyiv, Hollywood actor-director Sean Penn found himself among thousands of refugees fleeing to Poland, joining the exodus on foot.

Penn, 61, shared a photo on Twitter on Monday of himself wearing a backpack and toting a piece of luggage on wheels as he trudged along the shoulder of a road alongside a line of cars stretching into the distance.
