James Cromwell, tireless in acting and activism

At first glance, James Cromwell appears to be resting in his upstate New York home. But further investigation reveals that he is simultaneously restless. Over the past 30 years, he’s had memorable roles in “LA Confidential,” The Green Mile,” “The Queen,” and now “Succession” on HBO Max, all after his Oscar-nominated performance as Farmer Hoggett in “Baby”. Besides acting, Cromwell is known for his activism. More recently, he stuck one of his hands against the counter of a Starbucks in Manhattan.
