Ron Perlman is furious at the Hollywood executive who made comments about prolonging negotiations with striking writers, and he’s letting everyone know it.
In a now-deleted social media rant, which was captured by TMZ, the “Hellboy” actor appeared to threaten some form of retaliation towards the executive, whose identity he claimed to know.
“Listen to me, motherf*****, there’s a lot of ways to lose your house. Some of it is financial, some of it is karma, and some of it is just figuring out who the f*** said that — and we know who said that — and where he f****** lives,” Perlman filmed himself saying on Friday.
The actor was referring to a Deadline article on Tuesday that quoted anonymous studio executives discussing a strategy to let writers face dire circumstances to pressure them into accepting a deal favorable to the studios.
“The endgame is to allow things to drag on until union members start losing their apartments and losing their houses,” one executive told Deadline.
The tension in Hollywood escalated after Perlman’s union, SAG-AFTRA, went on its own strike.
“There’s a lot of ways to lose your house,” Perlman continued in his video.
“You wish that on people, you wish that families starve, while you’re making $27 f***** million a year for creating nothing? Be careful, motherf*****. Be really careful, ’cause that’s the kind of s*** that stirs s*** up,” he added.
