Pedro Pascal brutally criticized Donald Trump’s attacks on artists, because the director of a conspiracy theory satire with the actor said he feared that the political messages of the films could be armed by the American border guards.
“Fuck people who are trying to scare you,” said the Game of Thrones and the last American actor at a press conference at the Cannes Film Festival, promoting Ari Aster Eddington’s new film. “And retaliate. And don’t let them win.”
He urged the creatives to “continue to tell the stories, continue to express yourself and continue to fight”.
The comments came shortly after the American president used his social platform Truth to call singer Bruce Springsteen a “arrogant and unpleasant moron” for criticizing his leadership, and affirming that the popularity of Taylor Swift had decreased since he announced his “hatred” for her.
“Obviously, it is very scary that an actor participating in a film speaks in a way of problems like this,” said Pascal when he asked if he feared that the United States will end completely for all forms of migration. “I want people to be safe and protected, and I want to live from the right (side) in history.”
“I am an immigrant,” said Pascal, whose parents fled Chile led by Pinochet at the age of nine months. “We fled a dictatorship, and I had the privilege of growing up in the United States, after asylum in Denmark, and if it was not for that, I do not know what would have happened to us.
Pascal embodies a mayor of small town in New Mexico alongside Joaquin Phoenix, Emma Stone and Austin Butler in Aster’s new film, the acclaimed director of “Horror Elevated” films in the middle of the road and hereditary.
When asked if he feared that the political message of the films could be used against the members of the distribution when they tried to return to the United States, Aster said: “The truth is that I am afraid of everything. All the time. So, yes. The language is somehow in the cheek in this answer, but it is also true.”

In the first summer of COVVI-19 restrictions and MATTER Black Lives MATTER demonstrations, Eddington offers Pascal’s restrictions, the advocative mayor, TED GARCIA, against the Sheriff sensitive to Phoenix locking, Joe Cross.
“I wrote this film in a state of fear and anxiety about the world,” said Aster in Cannes. “I have the impression that in the past 20 years, we have fallen into this age of hyperindividualism. The social force which was previously in liberal mass democracies, which is a version agreed to the world, which has disappeared now. And Covid looked like this link was finally cut for good. ”
