Cranston has long been critical of Trump, telling IndieWire in December 2018 about the connections he found between the president and the character Howard Beale that he was playing in the Broadway adaptation of “Network.” Cranston said, “They have a message, they have a soapbox in order to deliver it. They are able to convince a large swath of people that they have a message that is important to them, and to follow him. But then Trump says things that are not true, that are filled with xenophobia and prejudice of some level or another.”
When Cranston won a Tony Award for “Network” last summer, he used his acceptance speech to slam Trump’s crusade against the American media. “Journalists are actually in the line of fire in pursuit of the truth,” Cranston said. “The media is not the enemy of the people. Demagoguery is the enemy of the people.”
Next up for Cranston as an actor is a supporting role in Disney’s family tentpole “The One and Only Ivan,” set for release later this year.
