Jeff Goldblum's Meat-Free Journey: A Star's Change of Heart

Jeff Goldblum, known for his iconic roles, has made a big change in his life. He stopped eating meat after working on the Wicked movies. This decision came after he and the director, Jon Chu, talked about animal cruelty in the films. Goldblum, now 73, shared this on a morning show. He said that working on the movies made him think differently. He now believes in a world that works for everyone, including animals. The Wicked series has been a hit. The first movie came out last year and got 10 Oscar nominations. The second part is now in theaters. In these movies, Goldblum plays the Wizard of Oz. The story follows Elphaba, played by Cynthia Erivo, who fights for animal rights. Ariana Grande plays Galinda, who is Glinda the Good. Both Erivo and Grande have been vegan since 2013. It's not rare for actors to change their diets after working on certain films. James Cromwell, for example, became a vegan after working on Babe in 1995. He saw the animals he worked with on the lunch menu and decided to go vegan. Other actors, like Sadie Sink, Thandiwe Newton, and Liam Hemsworth, have also turned to veganism after working with Woody Harrelson. Many famous actors are vegan or vegetarian. Natalie Portman, Jessica Chastain, Brad Pitt, Tobey Maguire, and Zendaya are among them. This trend shows how working on films can influence people's lives in big ways. It's not just about acting; it's about the messages and experiences that come with the job.
