Billie Eilish, Javier Bardem, Cillian Murphy, Joaquin Phoenix and More Join Together For Palestine With a Powerful Call: “Ceasefire Now, Stop the Killing”

 

A powerful new video has been released in support of Together For Palestine, featuring global stars including Billie Eilish, Javier Bardem,Cillian Murphy, Steve Coogan, and Joaquin Phoenix.

 

 

 

The message comes just hours before a massive benefit concert organized by Brian Eno at London’s OVO Arena Wembley tonight (September 17), which will also be livestreamed worldwide.

 

The concert lineup brings together Damon Albarn, Bastille, Cat Burns, Greentea Peng, Hot Chip, James Blake, and Jamie xx. “We come together – not just to raise our voices, but to reaffirm our shared humanity,” Eno explained.

 

The one-minute video opens with Peaky Blinders actor Murphy and Joker star Phoenix, followed by Sharon Horgan (Bad Sisters), Steve Coogan (Alan Partridge), DJ and broadcaster Annie Mac, and Peter Gabriel.

 

Later, Billie Eilish and her brother Finneas declare they are “together for Palestine,” before Ben Howard, Chris O’Dowd (The IT Crowd, Black Mirror), and Succession star Brian Cox add their voices. Cox stresses, “We have to tell the truth on behalf of the people of Palestine,” while activist and photographer Nan Goldin reminds: “It’s always been the artist’s role in society to speak out, to risk speaking truth to power.”
