“We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight!”
Actor Bill Pullman, famous for playing the president who helped kick alien butt in 1996’s Independence Day, was part of a pro-mask public service announcement from theater chain Alamo Drafthouse that dropped over the weekend, where he urged Americans to wear “freedom masks” for the safety of others.

Pullman has starred in movies like Spaceballs, Sleepless in Seattle, The Last Seduction, and Lost Highway – and can be seen these days as the star of USA’s Jessica Biel-produced mystery series, The Sinner.
In other movie news, Tessa Thompson spoke about Marvel embracing diversity in the MCU’s Phase 4, Danny Glover gave up a few clues about the plot of the Lethal Weapon revival, and Sylvester Stallone confirmed that he’s working on a Director’s Cut of Rocky IV.
