“The Handmaid’s Tale” star Bradley Whitford told his former chief Jeff Bezos to “speak” against President Donald Trump in a fiery interview on Tuesday.
The actor aimed at his current and previous bosses not to take a direct stand against Trump, telling the variety that the managers of the entertainment industry were “staying silent while their daughters are being shattered.”
“You know, Misogyny is in the brains of the reptiles of these right -wing white nationalists. It is punitive. And, man, I’m upset to all the people I work for. ‘F-. Speak. Up,” Whitford ra.
The wrath of the star The Handmaid’s Tale was boiled about Disney, the studio parent company that produces its current show, reportedly shouting aloud enough for everyone in Manhattan’s café to hear.
“I mean, if you run disney, which I think I work for now, I’ve sat through” – imitating a studio head at Disney – “” We really care about you and want to make access to health care. “Speak f – up!” Whitford shouted.
He then directed his anger towards his former chief, the founder of Amazon Jeff Bezos.
“And Jeff Bezos, – – talk!” the actor shouted.
Whitford previously played a transgender woman in Amazon Prime’s “Transparent”. In the interview, he seemed to accuse Bezos of turning his back on the transgender community, which he believed had become a “political football”.
“I don’t want to be a punk striker, but I would really like to ask Jeff Bezos – who, when I worked in ‘transparent’, was talking about the importance of supporting this tangible community, which has become a political football – ‘What the hell is happening here?!’
After being asked if he would say anything to his employers if and when he came into contact with them, Whitford showed in the reporter’s ribbon recorder and said, “I mean, you know, I’m happy to say here.”
At the end of the interview, the actor compared himself to a character from “Tale of Handmaid’s”, June Osbourne, a servant who became a symbol of resistance against oppressive regime in history.
As mentioned by Variety, Whitford believes he is “putting our country ahead of his life by emphasizing the hypocrisy of the most powerful men in the media and entertainment.”
“We feel this despair because we feel that we have no agency on what is happening to us in this country. And June is a reminder that your agency will not be given to you: you have to fight for it. Part of what is so wonderful for that character – it is producing people to embrace the power they have,” he explained.
Whitford closed the interview with a recent message to Bezos.
“I don’t care how much politics sound.
