Alec Baldwin talks debuting coming-of-age film Beast Beast in 'painful' time of 24-hour news cycle
When the actor stopped by the EW x NRDC Sundance Film Festival Panel Series on Friday to talk about producing the film, he was quick to point out how the evolution of the 24-hour news cycle has changed everything for youths growing up today.
“[When I was young] you didn’t have the 24-hour news cycle that you have now which the consequences of which is like almost the death of innocence and childhood,” Baldwin said during the panel, moderated by EW editor-in-chief JD Heyman.
Baldwin said he believes that not being able to get a respite from all the doom and gloom has an impact on the younger generation that’s growing up now, which is what“There’s just a constant baseline, like a drumbeat, of this pain and difficulty that everybody who is young has to grow up with which is very different than the way I grew up,” Baldwin added. “When I grew up it wasn’t like that at all.
The EW x NRDC Sundance Film Festival Panel Series continues at the 2020 Sundance film festival at the NRDC Impact Lounge through Monday . Other guests include Zazie Beetz, Eva Longoria, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
