Chilean-American actor Pedro Pascal urges filmmakers to resist fear and continue telling their stories.
At the Cannes film festival, Pedro Pascal called on filmmakers to “fight back” against a climate of fear in the U.S., emphasizing the importance of storytelling as a form of resistance. While discussing his role in “Eddington,” which addresses societal tensions, Pascal reflected on his immigrant background and the intimidation he feels regarding political issues, particularly those related to Donald Trump’s immigration policies. The festival also saw Robert De Niro urging the industry to oppose the “philistine president” amid Trump’s controversial remarks on foreign films.
