Julia Best Warner, wife of actor David Corenswet, reportedly liked a controversial Instagram post with Zionist references. The like was later removed after attracting attention.
David Corenswet’s name appeared falsely on a pledge by Film Workers for Palestine (FWFP), which urged Hollywood professionals to avoid working with Israeli film institutions accused of complicity in genocide and apartheid. FWFP confirmed that an impersonator had added Corenswet’s name without his consent and removed it after verification on November 4, 2025.
The pledge has broad support within the industry but the listing of Corenswet’s name was an error due to fraudulent activity. FWFP maintains the legitimacy of its campaign despite this mistake.
Julia Best Warner's reported Instagram like coincided with the pledge controversy, fueling speculation online. However, whether the Instagram post was truly Zionist, taken out of context, or misinterpreted, remains unclear and unverified.
“The FWFP pledge, which calls on Hollywood professionals to avoid collaborating with Israeli film institutions deemed ‘complicit in genocide and apartheid’, originally included Corenswet’s name among thousands of signatories.”
“On 4 November 2025 the organisation issued a statement clarifying that his name was removed after verification revealed the inclusion was based on fraud.”
Summary: Julia Best Warner’s social media activity and David Corenswet’s fraudulent inclusion in a political pledge have sparked online controversy, though key details remain unverified or corrected.
