Sebastian Stan sparked backlash online after warning America was in a “really, really bad place,” with critics blasting the “The Apprentice” star as an out of touch Hollywood elite<\/a> disconnected from everyday Americans.<\/p>\n

Stan, who starred as Donald Trump<\/a> in the 2024 biopic, opened up about the current state of America while at Cannes to promote his new film, “Fjord.”<\/p>\n

“It\u2019s just not a laughing matter, to be honest,” he told Variety<\/a> when asked how he felt about his past work on “The Apprentice” now that Trump is serving out his second term as president. “It isn\u2019t.”<\/p>\n

“I think we\u2019re in a really, really bad place. I really do,” Stan added. “And to be honest with you, when you\u2019re looking at what\u2019s happening, right \u2014 if we\u2019re talking about the consolidation of the media, censorship, threats, the supposed lawsuits that seemingly never end but don\u2019t actually go anywhere. You know, the writing was on the wall. We encountered all that with the movie.”<\/p>\n

The actor recalled the controversy surrounding “The Apprentice” before it debuted at Cannes in 2024.<\/p>\n

“Three days before the festival, [we were] unsure if the movie was going to play the festival,” Stan said. “So maybe people are paying attention more to that film, I think it will stand the test of time for that. But we went through all of it, right before Jimmy Kimmel<\/a> and Stephen Colbert and so on. So, I wish it wasn\u2019t like that.”<\/p>\n

But not everyone agreed with Stan\u2019s bleak assessment of the country, with critics arguing the Marvel<\/a> star was out of touch with the realities facing most Americans.<\/p>\n

“These idiots live in a bubble,” one X user commented. “No real Americans think this way.”<\/p>\n

“Ahh yes. A multi millionaire telling people how this country is horrible. The people are oppressed, have censorship and no hope. By the way please pay $18 ticket and see my movie,” another person wrote.<\/p>\n

One comment read, “The opinions of the elites<\/a> don’t matter at all. The elites are those who live in guarded multimillion dollar homes, gated communities patrolled by security, with million dollar incomes, & have zero connection to the ordinary common citizens. They’re too out of touch with reality.”<\/p>\n

Some users praised the “Thunderbolts” star for voicing concerns they said extended beyond partisan politics.<\/p>\n

“It’s not Trump, it’s the entire super pac system,” one user wrote. “Stop getting distracted by Trump, he’s a symptom of something bigger. You’re annoyed by the lump and ignoring the cancer…”<\/p>\n

“Wow, this might be the dumbest comment section I’ve ever seen,” one added. “I thought Americans finally woke up about trump but I can see only idiots being upset about what Sebastian is rightfully saying.”<\/p>\n

Stan’s comments followed Javier Bardem’s decision to wade into politics while promoting his film “The Beloved.” Bardem called out world leaders \u2014 including President Trump, Russia’s Vladimir Putin and Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu<\/a> \u2014 for exhibiting “male \u200btoxic behavior.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
