Brian Cox Artists must 'fly flag of truth', says Succession actor
The Guardian
|November 09, 2024
Artists need to "keep the flag of truth flying" after Donald Trump's election victory, the actor Brian Cox has said.
Cox, who played Logan Roy in the hit HBO series Succession, also said the world "has never been in a more dangerous place than it is at the moment" as he reflected on the US election campaign and impending second Trump presidency.
"As artists we have to bang the drum, we have to keep going," he told the Guardian. "We mustn't put up with it. That's why I admire people like Mark Ruffalo [a longtime advocate for social justice].
"I'm not going to give up on my criticism of Trump. I think it behoves artists to not give up, to keep the flag of truth flying, because it's been so abused in recent years."
