Paul Walter Hauser has offered to step in and help out after Sebastian Stan encountered difficulties securing an actor for a Variety “Actors on Actors” interview for his new movie The Apprentice. The film, a biographical drama about Donald Trump, reportedly faced resistance from other actors who were unwilling to speak about it, possibly due to the controversial subject matter.
Stan, who plays the lead in The Apprentice, revealed earlier this week that the issue was rooted in publicists and representatives who were too wary to allow their clients to participate in discussions about the movie. He mentioned that no actors were willing to engage in conversations about the film, which left him in a difficult position.
In response, Paul Walter Hauser, known for his roles in I, Tonya and Black Bird, took to social media to express his willingness to help out by rescheduling his own plans to participate in the interview. His gesture was met with support from fans, showing solidarity with Stan and the film.
This moment has sparked a wave of discussion around the challenges of discussing controversial topics in Hollywood, with publicists and actors navigating the fine line between professional opportunities and the potential backlash associated with politically sensitive projects.
