Paramount faces backlash after deleted Killers of the Flower Moon tweet
Paramount has sparked backlash after reportedly posting and deleting a tweet about Robert De Niro's character in Martin Scorcese's Killers of the Flower Moon. Twitter/X account @DocNoirII posted a still from the movie of Robert De Niro's character William Hale wearing large goggles with the caption "this was crazy". Killers of the Flower Moon follows the true story of the Osage nation who were murdered by Hale and his nephews Ernest and Bryan Burkhart due to the oil found under the land. The reason for De Niro being dressed in large goggles is because he is supposed to resemble an owl, which symbolises death for the Osage people. The official Paramount Pictures account allegedly replied to the original tweet saying "you know he had to do it to 'em", with the sunglasses emoji - likely referring to the goggles worn by De Niro. However, it is unsurprising that many have taken the comment to imply that Hale had to murder the Osage people, understandably causing outrage by the offensive nature of the tweet. Even Lily Gladstone, who played Mollie Kyle, and grew up on the reservation of the Blackfeet Nation, expressed her anger at the thoughtless response from Paramount, who distributed the film: One user called Paramount's response "horrific": Another called it "tone deaf": Whilst most expressed pure disbelief at the comment: Although Paramount deleted the tweet, they have not issued a statement or apology.

Watch live as Macron commemorates anniversary of First World War Armistice in Paris
Watch live as Emmanuel Macron commemorates the 105th anniversary of the First World War Armistice in Paris. The French president will be making an address at the traditional ceremony, hosted at Arc de Triomphe on Saturday 11 November. On Friday, Mr Macron said Israel must stop bombing Gaza and killing women and babies in an interview with the BBC. He said there was “no justification” for the continued bombing of the enclave, which Palestinian health officials claim has killed more than 11,000 people. “De facto – today, civilians are bombed – de facto. These babies, these ladies, these old people are bombed and killed. So there is no reason for that and no legitimacy. So we do urge Israel to stop.” Mr Macron told the BBC that although France “clearly condemns” the 7 October “terrorist” attacks on Israel by Hamas and recognised Israel’s right to defend itself, “we do urge them to stop this bombing.” Read More Growing concerns from allies over Israel's approach to fighting Hamas as civilian casualties mount Watch live view over Israel-Gaza border as thousands continue to flee French President urges Israel to stop bombing women and babies in Gaza
