US star, who was also in Succession, urged leaders at biodiversity conference to take more forceful action to end nature crisis
The US actor James Cromwell revisited his old role in Jurassic Park with a modern twist in a protest against inaction on the nature crisis. He urged leaders atto “Stop the Human Asteroid” as he stood in front of a model dinosaur surrounded by pictures of world leaders’ heads as bits of rock flying into Earth.
James Cromwell, with campaign director for the international activist group Avaaz Oscar Soria during a press conference at Cop15 on 14 December.He said he found it extraordinary how large the conference was, how many people were genuinely very engaged with biodiversity loss, and yet how little was being accomplished. He said: “No leaders are showing up [at Cop15], the ones that show up have no plan, except to make sure that nothing happens.
He told delegates that he demanded his character in Succession, Ewan Roy, who is the older brother of media mogul Logan Roy, took a moral stance on his unscrupulous, rich family. He changed the script and sat down with creator Jesse Armstrong to explain why the character needed to change for him to take the part. He is also known for his roles in The Green Mile, LA Confidential, Six Feet Under and ER.
