Randy Quaid Slams Tom Cruise Over Anne Hathaway ‘Days of Thunder 2’ Role: “Anne Isn’t Sexy”

The original 'Thunder' co-star posted an offensive rant about 'The Odyssey' star being cast in the sequel: "If you haven’t noticed, she’s pregnant."

Randy Quaid, the 75-year-old actor known for his role as boisterous NASCAR Tim Daland in the 1990 film Days Of Thunder, recently expressed his disapproval of Anne Hathaway's casting as the lead lady in the highly anticipated sequel, which may or may not feature Tom Cruise. Quaid, who announced the potential remake on Twitter/X, vehemently criticized Hathaway, labeling her a "leftist, woke, horrible choice" for the role.

He further argued that she was not "sexy enough" to play Tom Cruise's love interest in the 2028 film, asserting that the sequel should instead feature Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman on screen again. Quaid, who has not been actively involved in professional acting since his controversial claims of being targeted by Hollywood in 2010, has no control over the production of this potential sequel.
