Sir Ian McKellan With Perfect Facepalm
You may know English actor, Sir Ian McKellan, for his roles in Lord of the Rings and X-Men. He is the recipient of six Laurence Olivier Awards, a Tony Award, a Golden Globe Award, a Screen Actors Guild Award, a BIF Award, two Saturn Awards, four Drama Desk Awards and two Critics’ Choice Awards. He’s also well-known as an activist.
For his sign at the Women’s March, McKellen held the perfect image. It was a photo of Star Trek’s Captain Jean Luc Picard sitting with his head in his hands in disgrace. He also posted, “The Women’s March in London was the longest I have been on… ” In the continuation, he wrote, “The Women and their allies had devised their own visual protests, hand-written and improvised at home, expressing their personal reaction to the new President, whose name in schoolyard English means ‘to break wind,’ appropriately.”
