MAKING WAVES

JAMES CROMWELL

-

The actor and activists, like his character Uncle Ewan on “Succession,” is taking a stand against for the environmen­t and against capitalism. The 82-year-old glued his hand to a Manhattan Starbucks counter on Tuesday to protest the coffee chain’s extra charge for vegan milk. Cromwell, also known for “Babe” and “L.A. Confidenti­al,” channeled his role as the crotchety brother of a billionair­e media mogul for the protest organized by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. Cromwell wore a “Free the Animals” T-shirt and read a statement denouncing the surcharge: “When will you stop raking in huge profits while customers, animals and the environmen­t suffer?” Police said there were no arrests.
