Pedro Pascal slams J.K. Rowling's views on transgender community once again
Picture Credit: X Hollywood star Pedro Pascal is just done with author J.K. Rowling 's views on transgender women. The actor has defended transgender women once again. Two months after the actor went viral for calling out J.K. Rowling for her "disgusting behavior" after she supported an anti-transgender ruling in the U.K., Pascal opened up about his decision to do so, reports 'People' magazine. He told 'Vanity Fair' that the attention it brought felt briefly like "that kid that got sent to the principal's office a lot for behavioral issues in public schools in Texas feeling scared and thinking, What'd I do?" However, he was worried about whether he was helping or hurting the situation. The actor, whose sister, Lux Pascal, came out as transgender in 2021, shared a comment under an Instagram video criticizing Rowling for supporting the U.K. Supreme Court's April 16 ruling that the legal definition of a woman is based solely on biological sex under Britain's Equality Act. "Awful disgusting S*** is exactly right. Heinous LOSER behavior", the longtime outspoken advocate for the LGBTQ+ community wrote. "The one thing that I would say I agonized over a little bit was just, 'Am I helping? Am I f******helping?' It's a situation that deserves the utmost elegance so that something can actually happen, and people will actually be protected", he said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 2025 Top Trending local enterprise accounting software [Click Here] Esseps Learn More Undo "Listen, I want to protect the people I love," continued Pascal.

Gary Oldman says he was tired of being 'poster boy for rent-a-villain'
Picture Credit: X Hollywood star Gary Oldman is magical whenever he essays a role. Who could forget his chilling portrayal of the antagonist in 'Leon: The Professional'? However, the actor got tired of playing the villain after a point. While discussing his performance as Dr. Zachary Smith in 'Lost in Space', the actor said there was a point in his career where he was the go-to for casting directors who needed a bad guy, reports 'Variety'. He told 'Variety', "I got sort of typecast for a while. I became kind of like the poster boy for the 'rent-a-villain'. Sort of, 'Oh, we need a villain and we'll get Gary'. I don't know how that happened, but it happened. And it was fun for a while, but eventually, I just put a stop to it. It got a little old. But they are fun to play". Oldman went on to compare the character of Dr. Zachary Smith to another one of his iconic villain roles, Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg from 'The Fifth Element'. "This particularly, like 'The Fifth Element,' much like 'Lost in Space,' they're comic villains", he explained. "('Lost in Space') was fun, great cast. I thought the story, it was a lot to put in. It was a lot of movie in two hours. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Buy Brass Idols - Handmade Brass Statues for Home & Gifting Luxeartisanship Buy Now Undo But (Dr. Zachary Smith) was fun to play because it's a villain with a tongue in the cheek or a little twinkle in the eye (sic)".

Goyer, who wrote 'Batman Begins' and 'The Dark Knight' for Nolan, recently recalled on the 'Happy Sad Confused' podcast that he was "very surprised" to hear Oldman had landed the role, given his villain status.
