It’s easy to forget about Kevin Sorbo, especially since his last memorable role was nearly 30 years ago. However, he occasionally resurfaces with alt-right MAGA commentary, reminding us of his existence. Sorbo has become known for sharing conspiracy theories online and constantly referencing his role as Hercules. Recently, he posted an anti-vax video, further cementing his reputation as a conspiracy theorist, and mentioned his role alongside Dennis Quaid in an upcoming movie, asserting his continued relevance.
What’s Kevin Sorbo Up To Now?
As the election season approaches, Sorbo has ramped up his right-wing rhetoric, particularly against President Joe Biden. In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), Sorbo claimed that a vote for Biden is a vote for war, though he did not provide any details on how Trump would handle the current political situation better. The former ’90s actor is trying to position himself as a conservative counterpart to Robert De Niro, who has been vocally critical of Trump. However, Sorbo’s relevance in the political discourse is questionable, given his diminished status in Hollywood.
Sorbo has announced his involvement in a movie about Ronald Reagan, starring Dennis Quaid. In a post on May 25, he claimed that “the left is going to hate this.” A closer look at the film’s cast list shows Sorbo’s name at the bottom in an unnamed role, and he’s not even listed on IMDb. This suggests his part might be minor, almost like a game of “MAGA Where’s Waldo?”
Sorbo frequently brings up his role as Hercules, which seems to be his primary claim to fame outside his current political commentary. Aside from his conspiracy theories, this nostalgia appears to be what keeps him from fading into complete obscurity. Comparing him to De Niro is quite a stretch, but Sorbo seems content with any attention he can get. Keep an eye out for him in the Reagan movie later this year—though you might have to look closely to spot him.
