Olivia Wilde Wears 'ICE Out' Pin at Sundance Film Festival, Receives Standing Ovation for 'The Invite' Premiere
Olivia Wilde is joining the masses in protesting ICE while appearing at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival on Saturday (January 24) in Park City, Utah.
The 41-year-old actress and director wore an “ICE Out” pin on her dress as she attended the premiere of her new movie The Invite alongside co-stars Edward Norton (with wife Shauna Robertson) and Seth Rogen at the Eccles Center Theater.
Also in attendance was co-writer Will McCormack, with his longtime partner Emily Arlook.
On the carpet, Olivia spoke out about the devastating killing of Alex Pretti by ICE in Minneappolis that morning.

“We’re all here getting to celebrate something really beautiful and hopeful in film storytelling,” she told Variety. “But the world is hurting right now, and this country is hurting. And it’s appalling.”
“I’m appalled and sickened,” Olivia added. “We can’t go another day just sort of accepting this as our new norm. It’s outrageous. People are being murdered. And, I don’t want to normalize seeing people being murdered on the internet. On film. It’s. It’s hideous. And so if we can do anything out here to support the movement to cast ICE out, to delegitimize this unbelievably criminal organization, then that’s what we should be doing.”
She also added that it was inspiring to see people out protesting the Trump administration’s deployment of ICE.
“I think so many Americans are [speaking out]. I mean, you see the marches happening around the country,” Olivia said. “Americans are speaking up in huge numbers, and it’s dangerous to be a protester now and people are still going out to the streets, which is incredibly inspiring.”
Natalia Portman also spoke out condemning the actions of ICE at Sundance this weekend.
After the screening of The Invite, Olivia, who stars in and directed the movie, took to the stage for a closing Q&A and received a standing ovation, which brought her to tears, per Variety.
