Ammon News - AMMONNEWS - Hollywood star Julianne Moore was reportedly dismissed from a turkey tourism ad for her “poor acting,” Hurriyet Daily News reported this week.
Moore, who recently who an Oscar for her performance in the film “Still Alice,” was dropped from the promotional film after representatives at the Culture and Tourism Ministry were reportedly unhappy with the footage.
Officials reportedly asked the actress to reshoot the film but Moore refused, according to the Hurriyet Daily News.
The actress had agreed to shoot the tourism ad for government officials last year to encourage people to visit the country.
In the film, called Home Of, Moore appeared revisiting her childhood while traveling to Turkey on an airplane.
Home Of, which was filmed last year in Los Angeles, was supposed to be aired in Turkey in February 2014.
