Ice Cube isn’t the only actor to speak out against the Covid-19 vaccines. Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantamania actress Evangeline Lilly attended a protest against vaccine mandates back in January. 

She posted to Instagram writing, “I was in DC this weekend to support bodily sovereignty while Canadian truckers were rallying for their cross-country, peaceful convoy in support of the same thing.”

“I believe nobody should ever be forced to inject their body with anything, against their will, under threat of: violent attack, arrest or detention without trial, loss of employment, homelessness, starvation, loss of education, alienation from loved ones, excommunication from society…under any threat whatsoever,” Lilly declared.

She continued, “This is not the way. This is not safe. This is not healthy. This is not love. I understand the world is in fear, but I don’t believe that answering fear with force will fix our problems.”

Finally, she concluded, “I was pro choice before COVID and I am still pro choice today.”

Former Star Wars actress Gina Carano also called for people to not comply when President Joe Biden announced a plan to mandate vaccines for private companies and corporations.

Last November, Carano posted to Twitter, “Your body does not belong to your employer, your school or your government.”

In a follow-up tweet she wrote, “‘Two weeks to flatten the curve. #DoNotComply”

She also shared a photo with the message “Do Not Comply” written across her arms and hands.

Fran Drescher, the president of SAG-AFTRA, recently described mandates as “ludicrous” and warned that it could lead to “fascism.”

She stated in a video uploaded to Twitter, “So to think that every human on the planet can take one vaccine is ludicrous. And to make that one vaccine the criteria for who is allowed to work, travel, dine, go to theater, etc… is an infringement on the disabilities act, the freedom of religion act, and body sovereignty.”

“We as a nation must be very careful that fear does not turn into fascism. When equal citizens stop being equal, when cards must be presented to identify whether you are included or excluded we stand at a tipping point of an America I no longer recognize,” she added.

Drescher then thanked Disney, “And even though I myself am vaccinated I must applaud Disney for taking the position to not vaccine mandate their sets any longer.”

“The problem with discrimination is that there will always be good people that justify it because of an extreme condition, but it is those times especially when we must fight even harder to protect the sanctity of freedom for all and never succumb to an us vs. them mentality.”

“Above all else freedom,” she concluded.
