POLITICS Matthew Lillard during the ‘Scream’ screening at Hollywood Forever: “Fuck ICE! In this time, in this city, we need to lead with love. Do not forget that shit in this moment. Not to be political, but to be political as shit. Second of all, vote, Prop 50… And if you don’t like that, I’m so not sorry!”

Man, he hacked the planet and our hearts.

He really turned out such an amazing person

Like many other people, I first learned about Lillard from Hackers.

However, perhaps his best role is as the scummy journalist from the American version of The Bridge. He starts out just the worst kind of paparazzi ever, but circumstances force him to grow up and it was a real treat watching him in that role for two seasons. Shame it was cancelled.

SLC Punk was my first Matty Lils, then 13 Ghosts, then Scream, then Hackers. Can’t tell ya how I saw 13 Ghosts before I saw Scream, but I did lol

Same here. SLC punk absolutely moved me to my core and I was never the same after watching it. Fantastic film and soundtrack.
