In a candid “Sunday Special” interview with Daily Wire Editor Emeritus Ben Shapiro, actor Dennis Quaid revealed what led him to accept the titular role in his newest movie “Reagan,” and discussed how Hollywood has “lost its relevancy with an audience.”
“Reagan” hits theaters on August 30 and also stars Jon Voight as a fictional ex-KGB agent and Penelope Ann Miller as Nancy Reagan. Quaid told Shapiro that he was initially hesitant to take on the role of President Ronald Reagan, citing the former president’s iconic status and the challenge of portraying him authentically.
“Reagan was my favorite president,” Quaid said. “I voted for Jimmy Carter in ’76. It was the first time I could vote, but then I voted for Reagan in ’80.”
