Actor Stephen Baldwin has opened up about the rejection he feels from Hollywood, both due to his Christianity and his support for President Donald Trump, with producers openly saying they don’t want him and his Bible around. Baldwin’s interview with The Hollywood Reporter on Tuesday served to promote his “Great American Pilgrimage” TV series, where the actor travels across the U.S. talking to Americans about the state of the union, and delved into his support for Trump and his faith.
Baldwin said that he’s known as the “Jesus freak of Hollywood,” which both does and doesn’t bother him. “It’s unfortunate that because I have believed in Jesus for 15 years that there are many in Hollywood who are unwilling to work with me.
