10 Celebs Who Are On The Hollywood Blacklist (And 5 Who Could Be Next)

12. Mel Gibson Was On The Blacklist For A Decade

Mel Gibson was once a highly sought-after actor and while is undoubtedly talented he only has himself to blame for landing on the Hollywood blacklist. And although he’s pleaded more than once to be let back into the fold, it doesn’t look like it’s going to happen anytime soon.

In 2006 Gibson was arrested for driving under the influence (he’s admitted to a serious drinking problem) and as if that wasn’t bad enough for his public image he made matters worse for himself by launching into an anti-Semitic rant in front of the arresting officers.
