Several Hollywood actors are calling for a boycott of Georgia’s film industry after Republican Brian Kemp officially won the state’s gubernatorial contest against Democrat Stacey Abrams.
But like the threats to move to Canada if Donald Trump won in 2016, these are also more than likely going to be hollow.
To all my friends who are studio and network executives, if you choose to shoot movies and tv in Georgia, don’t bother to call me.https://t.co/gtIKNJBhNF— Ron Perlman (@perlmutations) November 17, 2018
Before Kemp was even certified as the official victor, actors were already threatening to boycott working in Georgia, a state with a large film industry that’s been dubbed the Hollywood of the South; complete with a hashtag: #boycottGeorgia
Abrams has since responded to the calls for a boycott from Hollywood elitists, saying that while she appreciates Hollywood’s calls for action, she does not want them to hurt people who make a living in the state’s film industry. Instead, the Democratic politician wants the actors to get involved in a new voting rights organization she is launching called “Fair Fight Georgia.”

Three unemployed actors, oh boy...
I wish the hollywood elitists dumbocrats would boycott the country
I've never met actors who have turned down easy money.
They were "acting" when they said they'd boycott GA!!!
Ron Perlman is going to boycott Georgia. Wasnt his last claim to fame Cbs's beauty and the beast in the 1990's.guess hes been boycotting work since then.
You guys have to admit it is pretty shady to habe a candidate running qho is also in control of the process. Especially when the process he controls has been called out in the court of law for being unfair. If he was an honest man he would have stepped down frkm his position while he ran in the election.
Who believes people who make their living pretending?
