John Cusack apologises for anti-Semitic tweet

He shared a meme, since deleted, of a large hand with a Star of David on its wrist, oppressing a group of people.

Cusack added his own comment, "follow the money", to the meme, before later deleting his post after it attracted criticism.

He's already expressed his love for Kiwi culture with a ferocious haka for the Las Angeles premiere of Aquaman.

The Deadpool star, 34, said he did not know the race of Major Ben Daimio when he accepted the part in the comic book adaptation.

Skrein noted in a statement posted to his 34,000 Twitter followers that there had been "intense conversation and understandable upset" since he was cast in the film as the Japanese-American character.
