Selma Blair Returns to Acting With Three New Movies, Including Israel-Hamas War Drama ‘Stay Forte’ (EXCLUSIVE)


Blair, who went public with her multiple sclerosis diagnosis in 2018, returns to acting with three new movies, including an Israel-Hamas war drama.

The “Cruel Intentions” star is returning with three new movies, including the Israel-Hamas war drama “Stay Forte” with Judd Hirsch and the brothers Mark and Michael Polish’s “There There.” She will also star in supernatural thriller “Silent” from filmmaking duo Doron and Yoaz Paz. “This film is not just a narrative; it’s a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the bonds that unite us against unimaginable tragedy,” Blair said in a statement. “I am honored to be part of this journey, which truly reflects the diverse fabric of Israeli society—people of many religions caught in the crossfire of conflict.” Blair faced backlash last year for a media comment she posted about Islam, but later apologized for “a terrible err in my words [that] resulted in hurting countless people I never meant to, and I deeply regret this.”
