Sean Penn: βItβs time for cinema to get more inventiveβ
Two-time Oscar winning actor Sean Penn has told ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 5 Live that post-coronavirus will be a βgood time [for cinema] to get a little more inventiveβ.
Speaking to presenter Emma Barnett, the star said he had βlost interest in going to movie theaters when you couldnβt find a movie without the underwear on the outside of the tightsβ.
He said: βThoughtful films [were] going to television and only razzle dazzle taking up so many thousands of screens, it was not exciting me.β
The actorβs non-profit organisation, CORE (Community Organised Relief Effort) has carried out 400,000 Covid-19 tests across the United States since the pandemic began.
