'Sopranos' Star Considering Permanently Leaving America: 'The World Is On Fire'
HuffPost
“I think that’s just a rehearsal for what will happen here,” said the veteran actor about Portugal's recent 18-hour power outage.
“Sopranos” star Joe Pantoliano is considering leaving the United States — permanently.
The veteran actor didn’t name President Donald Trump as a reason for the potential move, but told Page Six in an interview published Saturday that he’s “so uncomfortable with the nature of what’s happening in our country” that he wants to “run for the hills.”
“It’s hard for me to think about people’s bullshit like making a TV show,” Pantoliano, 73, told the outlet at the New York City premiere for National Geographic’s “Tucci in Italy” series earlier this week. “The world is on fire, it’s hard for me to concentrate.”
The “Matrix” star went on to share that he and his wife of over 30 years, fellow actor Nancy Sheppard, recently returned from Portugal — and “really love it there.” He also posited that the country’s recent 18-hour power outage is a sign of things to come to the U.S.
“I think that’s just a rehearsal for what will happen here,” Pantoliano told Page Six.
