Sound of Freedom has emerged as a sleeper hit in Hollywood with positive audience reception, especially from Faith-based viewers. The film explores the story of Tim Ballard, the real-life founder of Operation Underground Railroad (OUR), an NGO dedicated to combating child s*x trafficking. The 2023 film has Jim Caviezel in the lead role, the same actor who appeared alongside Henry Cavill in $75M The Count of Monte Cristo, where he played the protagonist Edmond Dantès.
Caviezel has also played Jesus Christ in Mel Gibson’s Christian drama The Passion of the Christ. Caviezel, who has been associated with promoting QAnon conspiracy theories, did not hold anything back in a podcast with Steve Bannon.
The Sound Of Freedom Actor Believes Donald Trump Was Selected By God
Earlier, Tim Ballard came in defense of Sound of Freedom, alleging that people are using the QAnon connection to discredit his works with OUR and the movie. QAnon is a far-right conspiracy theory propagated by an anonymous individual(s) who claimed to have the Q clearance. The followers of QAnon believe that there exists a ritualistic global child s*x trafficking ring and that Donald Trump is the one fighting it.
Jim Caviezel appeared in the Real America’s Voice podcast for the film’s promotion and revealed some personal ‘QAnon’ viewpoints. Caviezel told host Steve Bannon, former Chief Strategist of Trump, that Donald Trump was selected by God to fight the s*x trafficking rings. Caviezel shared:
“I also want to say to Donald Trump, then when you watch this movie, you will be at peace and at rest because you, more than anyone, have done incredible things Jesus talks about, that you know faith without works is dead. I believe Donald Trump was selected by God Almighty, and I’m talking about the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit God.”
Jim Caviezel has previously appeared at meetings promoting QAnon theories, claiming that “the storm is upon us” and rallying people to join the battle against evil.
Sound Of Freedom Serves Its Target Audience Exactly What They Want
Jim Caviezel further claims that Donald Trump is hunted by the devil, a reference aimed at liberals, and draws parallels between the persecution of Moses and Jesus by Pharaoh and Herod respectively. The Count of Monte Christo actor further explains that organ harvesting and adrenochrome are more common than ever. Adrenochroming is yet another QAnon theory alleging that elites drink the blood of their s*x slaves.
Sound of Freedom definitely satisfies faith-based viewers and those who fantasize about a gun-wielding hero solving the deep-rooted issues of human and child trafficking in the world. The Person of Interest actor has his own reasons for doing the film but rational movie-goers understand that fiction can be far from reality.
The movie may have its merits and it may even address the fact that trafficking is a serious ongoing issue, but it eventually turns out to be another propaganda film. Sound of Freedom was released in theatres last month after being on hiatus for several years.
