Rob Reiner has provided a satirical response to being banned from Russia by Putin.
The veteran filmmaker, who was a shock inclusion on a listing printed by Russia over the weekend, quipped: “No remark. Besides to say that I’m heartbroken and should stay with the frustration.”
The Princess Bride and Spinal Faucet filmmaker was amongst 960 Individuals to have been “completely banned” from getting into Russia. The Hollywood legend directed a 2017 video concerning the Kremlin meddling within the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
As we reported yesterday, the listing contains such seeming no-brainers as Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and Hillary Clinton, however there’s no scarcity of eyebrow-raising names as effectively.
Additionally persona non grata are Morgan Freeman — who narrated the aforementioned 2017 video — together with Mark Zuckerberg and John McCain, who’s one among three deceased senators to make the listing.
All are accused of spreading “Russophobia,” per a launch that pulled the welcome mat. Notably absent from the ban is Donald Trump.
