Sean Penn is in Ukraine making a filming documentary about Russia’s invasion


Penn has been at the center of many anti-war and humanitarian operations over the years. The 2020 Discovery Plus documentary “Citizen Penn” recounted the actor’s efforts in setting up the non-profit organization Community Organized Relief Effort, also known as CORE, in response to the Haiti earthquakes of 2010. CORE also deployed teams to help with COVID-19 testing and vaccines across the country.
