CEO of MyPillow Takes Bold Stand Against Abortion and Takes Fight to Hollywood
A pro-life movie that’s partially financed by MyPillow CEO Michael Lindell is set to be distributed nationwide next month, and it couldn’t have been announced at a better time.
The dramatic trailer for the pro-life feature film “Unplanned” was released on Thursday.
In the film, Ashley Bratcher plays Planned Parenthood clinic director Abby Johnson, who renounces abortion after witnessing the procedure firsthand.
“Everything that they told us is a lie,” Johnson says in the emotional trailer.
Johnson is also warned that she made an enemy of “one of the most powerful organizations on the planet.”
The film is set to be released on over 800 screens nationwide, beginning on March 29.
“Unplanned” will be distributed by Pure Flix, which also theatrically distributed “God’s Not Dead,” according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Additionally, the film was partially funded by the MyPillow CEO, who has a history of standing up to the left.
Last April, Lindell refused to pull his ads from Fox News’ “The Ingraham Angle” while leftists were targeting Ingraham’s advertisers.
Now Lindell is investing money into a movie to combat abortion, and the trailer couldn’t have been released at a more perfect time.
Last week, Democrats in New York passed new legislation that will allow late-term abortions up to the moment of birth.
Democrats in Virginia unsuccessfully tried to pass similar legislation this week, and Virginia’s governor is now under fire for allegedly supporting infanticide.
In an interview on WTOP Wednesday morning, Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam implied that post-birth abortion — otherwise known as infanticide — may be deliberated with doctors under the proposed legislation.
“If a mother is in labor, I can tell you exactly what would happen. The infant would be delivered. The infant would be kept comfortable,” Northam prefaced.
“The infant would be resuscitated if that’s what the mother and the family desired, and then a discussion would ensue between the physicians and the mother.”
These are the monsters that Lindell hopes to oppose by funding “Unplanned,” but unfortunately, liberals may try to attack his business in retaliation.
Lindell will need conservatives’ support to compensate for liberal push back as he takes the fight against abortion to Hollywood.
