    Where can I find that information in the linked article? It mentions nothing of Bacons future plans or why he did the stunt.

    If you want to try to claim someone didn’t read an article, atleast make sure the information wasn’t from another first or something dude……

      Very first paragraph for starters.

      In an interview with Vanity Fair, the Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F actor…

      Second paragraph:

      Bacon, who is also currently starring in Ti West’s horror pic MaXXXine…

      A short read further:

      “I honestly feel very grateful for where I happen to be. That I can have two totally different movies coming out within a couple of days of each other, and completely different roles.

      Come on, man. Are you intentionally being ridiculous?

        Very first paragraph for starters.

        Old movies….

        Second paragraph

        This was supposed to obvious about upcoming stuff, what’s relevant about current projects….?

        A short read further:

        Th is paragraph more reads past tense, how does this say he has new movies coming out without prior knowledge…?

        I read the article, clearly you didn’t and are conflating articles or are bringing prior knowledge it and making connections.

        Its okay to be wrong….

          Beverly Hill Cop: Axel F is a brand new movie and is a sequel to previous BHC movies.

          That being said, I agree with you. Nothing about this article indicates that he was being humorous. If this were a video interview, there would be context. So if he was being a goof with a print interviewer, then that interviewer should have described him as such:

          “He wasn’t a fan of ordinary life. ‘No one told me they loved me and I had to wait in line for coffee…it sucked!’, he quipped tongue-in-cheek about the experience.”

          Something like that. Not indicating the attempt at humor just makes him sound like an asshole.

          Plus, articles like this get run by a star’s publicist before they are printed. I am surprised Kevin Bacon’s PR person didn’t pick up on this.
