Jessica Chastain has opened up about giving her Oscars acceptance speech moments after Will Smith slapped host Chris Rock.
In her speech, Chastain discussed “discriminatory and bigoted legislation sweeping our country [the USA]”, however, headlines were dominated by the altercation between Smith and Rock.
In May, Rock made a joke about the Smith incident after Dave Chappelle was attacked on stage in Los Angeles by an audience member.
In an interview with Net-A-Porter, Chastain spoke about trying to find “a calmness” after the shocking moment.
