Pedro Pascal has joined a chorus of Hollywood figures defending Jimmy Kimmel after ABC suspended 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' due to a joke made about President Trump. Pascal expressed his support on Instagram, emphasizing the need to defend free speech and democracy. This suspension follows threats from FCC chair Brendan Carr and actions by Nexstar, which unilaterally pulled the show. Other notable figures, including Tatiana Maslany and Dan Gilroy, have also voiced their discontent, with protests erupting at the Disney lot. The situation has raised significant concerns about censorship and the influence of political pressures on media, with Trump suggesting that other late-night hosts may face similar fates.
