Steven Spielberg's new film The Post has been banned in Lebanon.
The Sixties-set political drama, which stars Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks, has reportedly been denied a certificate by the Lebanese censorship board.
The reason given, according to entertainment industry journal The Hollywood Reporter, is that the director’s name is on a ‘boycott Israel’ list because he shot some scenes of his Oscar-winning Schindler's List in Jerusalem.
The news comes just days before the film’s Lebanon premiere.
