15 Ron Howard made JD Vance’s bestselling memoir Hillbilly Elegy into a major Hollywood movie four years ago. Now the filmmaker has publicly turned on the GOP vice presidential candidate, saying he is “surprised and disappointed” by the “rhetoric that I’m reading and hearing.”
At the Toronto Film Festival to promote his latest movie Eden, Ron Howard faced questions about JD Vance from multiple news outlets, some of which clearly had an ax to grind against Vance.

JD is exactly the guy portrayed in the movie!!!
Ritchie’s crazy!
Anyone who saw Ron Howard and Andy Griffith make those stupid ads for Obama way back knew exactly what Ron Howard is.
Ron is passed because JD is real. Opie is a fake.
Richie is a liberal.
Howard and Marion would be disappointed
STFU Opie.
He always endorses Democrats.
Send a bus load of illegals to his property. I am sure he can house 40 or 50 of them. The more from Caracas the better.
Richie must be being severely attacked by Demonicrats for this film. Explains why there are so many secret Trump voters in Hollyweird, according to The Soprano star.
“IIRC, his brother Clint is a conservative.”
Yes, I remember that too. And, frankly, Clint is the better actor of the two. He’s a comedic genius really, cf. his Seinfeld episodes.
Oh, cr*p! I meant Opie not Richie. I have no idea why my brain stuck Richie in there. Maybe because I used to watch the old Dick Van Dyke show, then Andy Griffith(?).
So, it turns out that Barnie wasn’t the most stupid of the Mayberry cast after all.....
C’mon man, Hollywood stars know everything, and are superior in every way to ordinary people.
We should respect them for that and we should always support them with our hard earned money.
The now ball Little Opie has had a wonderful enriched life. He just ought to thing about making good movies instead of delving headlong into democrat bullshit. Especially with this Que-Mala thing.
My son wrote the song for Ron Howard movie, Gung Ho. Song, Breakin The Ice, is played as they all go back to work. Martha Wash sang the song.
His name is first one listed, in credits.
A great song.. Ron didn’t pay a dime for it.
He wanted Crissie Hines and she couldn’t do it.
Evil Ron.
Yeah, Howard was a big time Republican. So was Fonzie at least on the show(“My bike likes Ike!”).
I was thinking the same thing.
Hollywood hasn’t been pro-Republican in my life. Even Reagan who was one of their own was given biased coverage (pro-Carter).
OPIE IS DOPEY!!
