John Leguizamo Slams Dean Cain’s ICE Plans: “Your Pronouns Are Has/Been”
John Leguizamo isn’t holding back when it comes to Dean Cain’s latest career choice. The Moulin Rouge! star blasted the former Superman actor after Cain revealed on Fox News’s Jesse Watters Primetime Wednesday that he’s planning to become an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent.
Leguizamo posted a video to Instagram Friday torching the decision, bluntly asking, “What kind of loser volunteers to be an ICE officer? What a moron. Dean Cain, your pronouns are has/been.”
Cain, who played Clark Kent in the ’90s TV series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman, took the jab in stride, responding on X to an article from The Hollywood Reporter about the criticism. “He’s a good actor— I like his stuff,” Cain wrote.
Speaking with Fox News Digital, Cain explained that his ICE plans are in line with his earlier decision to work in law enforcement nearly a decade ago. “Our ICE agents, who are amazing men and women, are incredible. And they’re black, and they are brown and green and yellow and Japanese and whatever. They’re a cross-section of Americans,” he said. “They are doing their job, the job that Congress wrote the laws for them to support and uphold, and they’re doing the job of deporting people who are here illegally.
“If you’re a legal citizen here in this country, no worries, you’re great, but if you’re here illegally, you’ve broken the law to begin with, whatever the circumstances are. You had multiple opportunities to self-deport, and the fact that these men and women who are doing their jobs are getting vilified, I had to stand up with them and for them because I think it takes people standing up to change the culture.”
Cain also recently made headlines for questioning James Gunn’s upcoming Superman reboot after the director called the character “the story of America … an immigrant that came from other places and populated the country.”
In a TMZ interview, Cain asked, “How woke is Hollywood going to make this character? How much is Disney going to change their Snow White? Why are they going to change these characters to exist for the times?”
