Hollywood's Silent Shift: Kevin Sorbo Talks Politics, Films, and Faith

Kevin Sorbo, a familiar face in Hollywood, recently shared his thoughts on the entertainment industry's political climate, film production challenges, and his new documentary. He believes Hollywood has been quietly rebelling against the dominant liberal ideology that has shaped the industry for over a decade. Sorbo claims he was one of the first victims of cancel culture, facing backlash from his manager and agent around 12 years ago due to his conservative views. Despite this, he finds it amusing, as his political stance has always been known. He sees this as a sign that the battle lines are being drawn, and the industry is ready for change. The actor also discussed the impact of global film production incentives, particularly in Canada. He explained that the financial benefits, such as tax credits and favorable exchange rates, make it difficult for American productions to compete. This system also creates barriers for American actors, as Canadian productions often have quotas for local talent to qualify for full tax benefits. Sorbo praised former President Donald Trump's involvement in entertainment issues, appreciating his straightforward approach. He criticized those who seem to seek offense in everything and hopes Trump continues to address cultural battles that conservatives have avoided for too long. In addition to his acting career, Sorbo is working on a new documentary called "Standing Against the World, " co-created with Oxford mathematician John Lennox. The film aims to make complex theological arguments accessible to a wider audience. Sorbo humorously refers to it as "apologetics for dummies, " encouraging viewers to check it out on Amazon. Looking ahead, Sorbo has a busy schedule with six movies in the works and two more documentaries planned for early next year. His diverse projects reflect his commitment to both entertainment and thought-provoking content.
