Avenger's Doomsday actor Ian McKellen delivered a Shakespearean monologue on immigration during a recent appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, as debates continued in the United States over immigration policies and the actions of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
McKellen drew parallels between present-day immigration issues and scenes from Shakespeare’s play Sir Thomas More, saying the current unrest echoed events from more than 400 years ago when London saw turmoil driven by anti-immigrant sentiment.
