Joaquin Phoenix: Activism, Advocacy, and Acting in the Spotlight
Joaquin Phoenix BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
# Recent Joaquin Phoenix Developments
Oscar-winning actor Joaquin Phoenix has made several notable headlines over the past few days, with his most significant activity centered on animal rights activism. On November 27, through a statement released by animal rights group Direct Action Everywhere, Phoenix publicly called the prosecution of UC Berkeley student and animal activist Zoe Rosenberg a "moral failure." Rosenberg was convicted on October 29 of felony conspiracy and three misdemeanors after taking four chickens from a Perdue Farms facility in Petaluma during a June 2023 "open rescue" action. Phoenix urged Sonoma County District Attorney Carla Rodriguez to redirect prosecutorial efforts toward the poultry processing facility instead, stating that "We have to decide who we are as a society: one that protects the vulnerable, or one that punishes those who try." He emphasized that "Compassion is not a crime" in his statement.
Rosenberg faces up to five years in prison and is scheduled for sentencing on December 3. Phoenix's intervention carries particular weight given his well-documented commitment to animal welfare activism. The actor, who is vegan, famously used his 2020 Academy Award acceptance speech for Joker to advocate for animal rights.
District Attorney Rodriguez responded by telling the Press Democrat that her office had not heard directly from Phoenix and reiterated that "no one is above the law," defending the prosecution as necessary to prevent unlawful trespassing and business disruption.
On the entertainment front, Phoenix's film The Running Man premiered on November 14, with Instagram posts from the actor promoting the theatrical release through Paramount Pictures. Additionally, in late November, Phoenix was among over 3,900 entertainment industry figures who signed a pledge refusing to work with Israeli film institutions deemed complicit in alleged war crimes. Phoenix and his partner Rooney Mara served as executive producers on the Venice Prize-winning Gaza drama "The Voice of Hind Rajab," walking the red carpet while wearing badges in support of Palestine.
Social media mentions from late November also referenced an interview discussing Phoenix's career alongside actor Pedro Pascal, though details remain limited. These recent developments showcase Phoenix continuing his pattern of leveraging his celebrity platform for causes aligned with animal rights and social justice activism, while simultaneously maintaining an active film career.
