Actor Sebastian Stan Reveals Surprising Snub After Playing Donald Trump In A Movie
HuffPost
The “Apprentice” star said he was iced out of a traditional awards season honor despite peers privately complimenting him on his performance.
Actor Sebastian Stan says his portrayal of President-elect Donald Trump in the controversial film “The Apprentice” has gotten him iced out of a traditional awards season honor.
Speaking at a Los Angeles screening Tuesday, Stan said he’d been invited to participate in Variety’s “Actors on Actors” interview series, only to have his appearance jettisoned when no other actor was willing to discuss his performance on the record.
“I couldn’t find another actor to do it with me because they were too afraid to go and talk about this movie, so I couldn’t do it,” he explained, as seen as video of the event.
Though Stan said fellow actors have complimented him privately on his “Apprentice” performance, he went on to note: “We couldn’t get past the publicists or the people representing them.”
After footage of Stan’s remarks began making the rounds on social media, Variety’s co-editor Ramin Setoodeh released a statement to Deadline and other outlets corroborating the claims.
