Last week, acclaimed actor Woody Harrelson dominated the headlines after a monologue on ‘Saturday Night Live’ went viral where the actor questioned how the media and society at large all complied with the various vaccine mandates pushed by pharmaceutical companies. Harrelson, who has long been a rebel compared to the rest of the Hollywood elite, shared a similar sentiment in an interview with the New York Times last Friday.
During Harrelson’s monologue, after going on multiple tangents about alcohol, cannabis, and various other topics, finished a long-winding joke about a script he received after his last appearance on SNL back in 2019, as previously reported by the DC Enquirer.
“Okay, so the movie goes like this. The biggest drug cartels in the world get together and buy up all the media and all the politicians and force all the people in the world to stay locked in their homes and people can only come out if they take the cartel’s drugs and keep taking them over and over,” Harrelson said. “I threw the script away.”
“I mean who’s going to believe that crazy idea! Being forced to do drugs?” He joked, adding, “I do that voluntarily all day long.”
In an interview with the Times, Harrelson expanded upon some of his beliefs about the role of covid-19 within his own industry, lambasting the coronavirus protocols that have made indie movie projects nearly impossible.
“Now to get an indie done? Especially with all the Covid protocols — which, to me, are rather absurd,” he said. “I don’t know what’s going to happen.”
When asked why the protocols were absurd, Harrelson blasted the industry for continuing them after three years, as reported by Breitbart.
“The fact that they’re still going on!” Harrelson boomed. “I don’t think that anybody should have the right to demand that you’re forced to do the testing, forced to wear the mask, and forced to get vaccinated three years on.”
“I’m just like, Let’s be done with this nonsense. It’s not fair to the crews. I don’t have to wear the mask. Why should they?” he asked. “Why should they have to be vaccinated? How’s that not up to the individual? I shouldn’t be talking about this [expletive].”
“It makes me angry for the crew. The anarchist part of me, I don’t feel that we should have forced testing, forced masking, and forced vaccination,” he explained, adding, “That’s not a free country. Really I’m talking about the crew. Because I can get out of wearing a mask. I can test less. I’m not in the same position they’re in, but it’s wrong. It’s been three years. Stop.”
Harrelson’s outspokenness on this issue is admirable and hopefully, his message to his fellow actors and industry executives will create change in Tinseltown. Nevertheless, Harrelson has proven that he doesn’t buy the mandates pushed on Americans during the pandemic and wants to see their remnants go to the wastebin of history.
