At Cannes, Pedro Pascal urges film creatives to fight back against political aggression

Hollywood actor Pedro Pascal urged actors and filmmakers to stand up to political aggression, while promoting his film 'Eddington' in the Cannes Film Festival, telling them to "fight back".

Coming in the aftermath of US President Donald Trump’s scathing attack on rock legend Bruce Springsteen, and his bizarre claim about country-pop diva Taylor Swift's decline in popularity because of his dislike of her music, 'The Last Of Us' actor said “F*** the people that try to make you scared,” reported The Guardian.

“And fight back,” he added. “This is the perfect way to do so in telling stories.

Don't let them win,” said the 50-year-old ‘Game Of Thrones’, and ‘The Mandalorian’ star.

He urged creatives to “keep telling the stories, keep expressing yourself and keep fighting for it’, while answering questions about an alleged political climate of fear in the country.
