MAGA Star Explodes at ‘Horrible Choice’ for Tom Cruise Movie Sequel
Key Points:
- Randy Quaid, a fervent Donald Trump supporter and actor from the original 1990 film Days of Thunder, criticized the casting of Anne Hathaway in the upcoming sequel, insisting Tom Cruise should reunite with his estranged ex-wife Nicole Kidman instead.
- Quaid claimed Hathaway, who is pregnant with her third child, is not a suitable choice for the film's NASCAR audience, labeling her a "leftist, woke, horrible choice" and contrasting her with Kidman, whom he called the "sexy older chick" for Cruise.
- Quaid's tirade included a video falsely claiming he had been cast in Days of Thunder 2, and his posts mixed political commentary with his opinions on casting, reflecting his MAGA-aligned views.
- The sequel, announced by Cruise and Hathaway, is scheduled for release in June 2028 and will be shot for IMAX, following the success of Top Gun: Maverick, another delayed Cruise sequel.
- Hathaway has recently faced criticism from conservative figures like Fox News host Tomi Lahren, who questioned the significance of her advocacy for LGBTQ rights, highlighting ongoing political tensions around her public image.
