James Woods Calls Out Trump Over Rob Reiner Remarks

Hollywood’s response to the president’s recent remarks about Rob Reiner has been anything but quiet. While many in the industry, especially those with progressive leanings, have voiced their outrage, the reaction from one of Trump’s most loyal supporters has caught plenty of punters off guard. James Woods, known for his outspoken support of the president, has taken a different tack this time around.

Unexpected Criticism from a Loyal Supporter

Woods, who’s never been shy about backing Trump in the past, found himself in a tricky spot after the president’s comments regarding the late director. As a mate of Reiner and his wife, Woods didn’t hold back in expressing his disappointment.

The Videodrome star has often been outspoken in support of Trump, but as a friend of Reiner and his wife, Woods made it clear that this time the president has overstepped a line.

His reaction stood out, especially given his history of defending Trump even when others in Hollywood have been quick to criticise.

Hollywood’s Divided Reactions

The president’s remarks have only deepened the rift in the entertainment world. While some have doubled down on their criticism, others have chosen to stay quiet. Woods’ decision to speak up, despite his usual stance, has added another layer to the ongoing debate about politics and personal loyalty in the industry. It’s not every day you see a staunch supporter publicly call out the person they usually back to the hilt.

Personal Ties and Public Statements

For Woods, the issue seems to go beyond politics. His friendship with Reiner and his family appears to have played a big part in his response. It’s a reminder that, even in a town as political as Hollywood, personal relationships can sometimes outweigh party lines. The fallout from the president’s comments continues to ripple through the industry, with many watching closely to see who else might break ranks.
