Sacha Baron Cohen has disclosed the way he had gatecrashed a Mike Pence rally while being dressed in a fat suit for another Borat Movie.
The second installment of the movie will be out soon on Amazon Prime Video. But this time the Ali G actor would have a more important mission than just making audiences laugh. He said he felt like he ‘had to ring the alarm bell and say that democracy is in peril this year’.
While speaking to New York Times, Sacha Baron Cohen said he had a ‘long-standing distaste’ from Trump, as of course, he had confronted him in 2003 when he was shooting for the Ali G film.
Therefore, this is not surprising that he is now overseeing his actions to make fun of the Trump administration.
Sacha Baron Cohen said, “Bear in mind, I spent five hours in makeup that morning with the prosthetic team changing my face into Trump’s face.”
“This fat suit is huge. It’s a 56-inch fat suit to turn my waist into Trump’s because we had estimated that was the most realistic.”
Sacha Baron Cohen Is Wearing A Fat Suit
“I’m wearing a fat suit. How do I get in and how do I get out?”
Sacha Baron Cohen added, “Then I ended up hiding in the bathroom, listening to conservative men go to the toilet for five hours until I broke into the room. We were surrounded by Secret Service and police and internal security.”
In the movie, he was seen holding a lady over his shoulder at one point. He says he has brought her as a gift from Kazakhstan.
Borat film is shot partly during the pandemic. He said, “The hardest thing I had to do was, I lived in character for five days in this lockdown house.”
“I was waking up, having breakfast, lunch, dinner, going to sleep as Borat when I lived in a house with these two conspiracy theorists. You can’t have a moment out of character.”
Borat movie will be available on Amazon from 23 October.
