John Leguizamo is drawing a clear line in the sand.
The actor, known for his roles in movies like “Moulin Rouge!” and “Romeo + Juliet,” shared a pointed message on Instagram Wednesday, making one thing clear: if any of his fans support ICE, he doesn’t want them as fans.
“If you follow ICE, don’t follow me, don’t come to my shows and don’t watch my movies,” Leguizamo said in a short video that he captioned, “Abolish ice!”

Others were more critical. One person commented, “Sure, I’ll just get in my time machine and go back to the 90s where you had 2 watchable movies in total.”
“No problem big dawg didn’t watch anyways,” read another reply.
Talk show host Joe “Pags” Pagliarulo weighed in as well, telling the actor, “You think you have more of an impact than you do. This take is so completely unintelligent it hurts. Maybe just say words people write for you. You’re better at that.”
Fox News Digital has reached out to Leguizamo for comment.

Leguizamo is hardly the first celebrity to join the national conversation on ICE, or U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Following the fatal shootings of anti-ICE agitators Renee Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis this month, several stars have used their platform to speak about the issue, with many critical of the situation.
Natalie Portman spoke with Deadline this week at the Sundance Film Festival, stating, “What’s going on in our country right now is absolutely horrific with what the federal government, Trump’s government, Kristi Noem, ICE, what they are doing is really the worst of the worst of humanity.”

“Fatal Attraction” star Glenn Close spoke out in a video post to her 1 million Instagram followers, saying she felt “compelled” to say something after what transpired in Minneapolis. “I am outraged and sickened by what is happening under the Trump regime: the cruelty, inhumanity, and arrogance, the voracious corruption, the cowardice, the sickening hypocrisy, the blatant manipulation of facts, and now the cold-blooded murder of American citizens,” she said.
