Back in Hollywood’s Golden Age of the big studios and actors under contracts, they were not allowed to speak anything in public without clearance from the PR department. Sam Goldwyn, Louis Mayer and other studio head knew that losing half your audience to some stupid political stunt would be the box office poison for them. Maybe the studios should go back to that system. Tell the actors to keep their mouths shut and act!................

And... it’s not just a matter of bad PR due to political bias. It’s also a huge problem of politically biased DEI casting. Obviously, the studios are being destroyed from within by their very own DEI leftist corporate stooges. And they just can’t help destroying everything they touch or get close to. It’s how leftists roll.
One can only wonder how much better the ratings would have been had they cast Sydney Sweeney in the roll, instead. But no, that woulda have been too pro-MAGA (too pro-America). Can’t have that.
Soon all the human actors will be replaced by AI. We could even see famous actors from the past simulated and doing new stories. If their estates get royalties for their images why would they complain. I guess some would complain and refuse - its all about the “art”. No its about the “Benjamins! Those who do it solely for the “art” can go back to doing dinner theater.
I for one won’t miss actors one bit!
