'Wish You Were Here' star Kelsey Grammer says California officials weren't as prepared as they could have been for the recent wildfires that swept through Los Angeles.
Kelsey Grammer is seeing a shift in Los Angeles politics, all stemming from what he feels was mismanagement of fire prevention by state and local governments. 'I've always been a little bit on the more conservative side of things politically around here, so that shift seems to be unfolding because of … I guess you'd call it malfeasance in office,' the actor told Fox News Digital.
Grammer, who stars in the new film 'Wish You Were Here,' said he’s had 'a house full of refugees' from the fires, which broke out across Los Angeles this month, with the Pacific Palisades and Altadena areas being hit particularly hard. 'I am devastated by the loss, the human loss, the loss of life,' he said.
Somebody took their eye off the ball, and there's probably going to be some accountability for that. But you never know in California.' 'For many, they're going to want to find a new way to live, a new way forward, a new place to live. But I know a lot of people want to stay, and I wish them well with it. And I'm certainly going to do everything I can to help,' Grammer said, adding he’s been 'quietly volunteering some stuff behind, but that's what I want to do.
Based on a novel of the same name, the story follows Charlotte who experiences a whirlwind romantic evening with a stranger . But when things abruptly change the next morning, she seeks answers and finds new meaning in their connection. Grammer plays Charlotte’s father alongside 'Dirty Dancing' star Jennifer Grey, and he provides some 'hit-and-run comedy' to the romantic drama.
