Robin Wright might soon join several other celebrities in leaving the United States behind.
The “House of Cards” star has spent her career in Hollywood, directing, producing and starring in a litany of acclaimed projects, but revealed Sunday that she’s spent the last few years in England — and wants to permanently move to its countryside.
“America is a shitshow,” said Wright in a new interview with The Sunday Times.
The actor didn’t mention President Donald Trump or the distressing policies marking his second administration. Wright, who has lived in the Chiltern Hills outside London in recent years, pointed to the seeming decline in traditional American life as her reason.
“I love being in this country,” she told the English paper. “There’s a freedom of self here. People are so kind. They’re living. They’re not in the car in traffic, panicked on a phone call, eating a sandwich. That’s most of America. Everything’s rush, competition and speed.”
