The Hollywood Reporter is worried sick.

The far-Left claims we haven’t seen enough anti-Trump action from celebrities of late.

Yes, Donald Trump’s victory only happened two months ago, but THR craves a full-scale Resistance Sequel.

  • Marches
  • Anti-Trump documentaries
  • Social media signaling

It’s been “eerie quiet,” the site maintains with a whiff of conspiracy.

After deploying every weapon to stop Trump from regaining the White House — letting loose every Beyoncé performance, George Clooney op-ed and Taylor Swift endorsement — the industry has pretty much gone Harold Lloyd-silent since he won.

Said weapons were deployed for naught, as we all learned Nov. 5. Perhaps the stars read story after story suggesting Americans are burned out by celebrity endorsements and tweaked their activism.

Or they’re waiting for an excuse to resume their ResistanceTM ways. Like, for instance, Oscar season.

The awards calendar heats up Sunday with the Golden Globes telecast. Host Nikki Glaser gets the call, steering a night filled that could turn into a DNC rally.

Or not.

The last few years have seen a marked decrease in political activism across the awards show circuit. Even Jimmy Kimmel, one of late-night TV’s most aggressive partisans, dialed down the rhetoric during the past two Oscar telecasts.

President Trump wasn’t in the Oval Office over this period. Did that make all the difference?

Jan. 5’s Globes telecast will tell us plenty about Hollywood’s resistance frame of mind. It also will share how Oscar season might play out.

Will Glaser bring a political edge to her monologue? The feisty comic insists Trump jokes are off the table, but that isn’t written in stone. Previous award shows have taken a politics-free pledge only to shatter it later.

Are actors eager to shred President-Elect Trump during their acceptance speeches? Will comic hosts roast the  former and future president, ratings be darned?

Or, will the stars realize Hollywood is in a precarious state and stick to the films and TV shows in question? The latter may be the most likely outcome. (It also partially explains the so-called silence from Team Hollywood post-Nov. 5)

The film industry’s box office totals shrank in 2024. Streaming platforms are struggling to make a profit. Production staffers are mulling other lines of work during the industry’s contraction.

The looming threat of A.I.-generated content hangs over the town’s head. Consumers can watch slickly produced YouTube channels, content made at a fraction of the price point of any given network show, over broadcast fare.

It’s no wonder some stars might stay mum on the political front.

The other possibility? The assembled stars speak out on tangential issues – MeToo, the Israeli-Palestinian war, Climate Change or other issues.

If so, the classic Golden Globes moment, courtesy of Ricky Gervais, may still apply.
