James Cromwell superglued his hand to a Starbucks counter in protest of the coffee chain charging more for vegan milks than regular milks on Tuesday morning (10 May).
Cromwell has long been an activist for animal rights and has also been known to lead anti-capitalist sit-ins.
Footage has emerged of the Succession actor, 82, stuck to a counter at a Starbucks in Manhattan, with other members of the animal rights organisation People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta).
Cromwell alleged that Starbucks, which claims to advocate for inclusivity, “discriminated against those who can’t have dairy” by making customers “pay more” for alternatives such as almond or oat milk.
