Martin Sheen Endorses Chris Pappas in Competitive New Hampshire Senate Race

Actor Martin Sheen, widely recognized for portraying fictional President Josiah Bartlet on the television series 'The West Wing,' has endorsed Democratic candidate Chris Pappas in New Hampshire’s closely watched Senate race. Sheen highlighted the symbolic connection between his TV character and the state, since Bartlet was depicted as a former governor from New Hampshire. In his endorsement, Sheen emphasized his long history of political activism and framed the election as an important contest for the future direction of American democracy. The Senate race is considered one of the most significant contests of the 2026 midterm elections. Polling reportedly shows a highly competitive race, with Democrats viewing New Hampshire as a crucial opportunity in their effort to gain control of the Senate. The article also notes that President Donald Trump recently endorsed Pappas’s Republican opponent, making the race a direct political test of Trump’s influence during the midterm cycle. The piece reflects on the cultural legacy of 'The West Wing,' which aired from 1999 to 2006 and became known for presenting an idealized image of principled Democratic leadership. According to the article, that portrayal has gained renewed relevance among liberal audiences during the Trump era. Sheen, now 85 years old, has spent decades involved in activism on issues such as nuclear disarmament, immigration, and homelessness, and has participated in numerous protests throughout his life. Although Sheen stated that he has never sought political office himself, he argued that his years observing political campaigns and public life have given him insight into the importance of elections like the New Hampshire Senate contest.

Behind the Scenes of 'Badlands' (1973) Featuring Martin Sheen and Sissy Spacek

The article provides an in-depth look at the 1973 American neo-noir crime drama 'Badlands,' which marked Terrence Malick's directorial debut. Starring Martin Sheen as Kit and Sissy Spacek as Holly, the film follows the story of two young lovers who go on a violent spree across the Midwest in the late 1950s, inspired by the real-life Charles Starkweather and Caril Ann Fugate murders. Holly narrates the story with a detached, almost dreamlike tone that contrasts sharply with the violent events unfolding on screen. Produced on a modest budget of around $300,000–$350,000, the film faced financial challenges, even pausing production temporarily so Malick could secure additional funding. Although set throughout the Midwest, the filming primarily took place in southeastern Colorado towns like La Junta and Trinidad. 'Badlands' is celebrated for its lyrical cinematography and its influence on the 'outlaw couple' genre. The film earned Martin Sheen a best actor award at the San Sebastián International Film Festival and was later selected for the National Film Registry in 1993, solidifying its status as a classic of American cinema.

Il Fatto Quotidiano: “I narcotrafficanti del Cartello di Sinaloa ce l’avevano con me perché compravo talmente tanta droga che si erano convinti che la spacciassi e gli facessi concorrenza”: lo rivela Charlie Sheen

“È incredibile che io sia ancora vivo. Sono arrivato alla conclusione che Dio o chi per lui ha dei piani per me”, così con disarmante sincera Charlie Sheen si è raccontato a La Repubblica, in occasione del lancio del libro autobiografico “The book of Sheen. Un memoir”, dove l’attore 60enne ha ripercorso le fasi salienti della sua vita, senza risparmiare davvero nulla. Tra gli aneddoti raccontati quello dell’incontro con i pericolosissimi narcotrafficanti del Cartello di Sinaloa.
“Ce l’avevamo con me perché compravo talmente tanta droga che si erano convinti che la spacciassi e gli facessi concorrenza: non potevano credere che un uomo solo potesse farsene così tanta tutta insieme”, ha scritto.
Le prime parole del libro sono eloquenti: “Sono nato morto”. L’attore lo spiega: “Avevo il cordone stretto intorno al collo, in pratica ero già sul carro funebre. Ma il medico mi salvò a forza di schiaffi. Di secondo nome, mi chiamo Irwin in suo onore. Un ottimo inizio, eh?”.
Tra i tanti ricordi la vita sul set a dieci anni, assieme al padre Martin Sheene, nelle Filippine per il film cult “Apocalypse Now” di Francis Ford Coppola. “Il set era davvero folle al di là di ogni immaginazione. – ha commentato – Girava ogni tipo di sostanza perché c’era moltissima pressione: stiamo parlando di Hollywood al suo apice e di gente come Francis Ford Coppola e Marlon Brando. Quanto mangiava! Un giorno venne a pranzo da noi e mamma preparò per tutti una grande ciotola piena di spaghetti al burro e parmigiano. Brando se la mise davanti e iniziò a divorarla, lasciandoci a bocca asciutta. Noi eravamo increduli. Ma era una persona davvero affascinante, intelligente, quasi soprannaturale”.
L'articolo “I narcotrafficanti del Cartello di Sinaloa ce l’avevano con me perché compravo talmente tanta droga che si erano convinti che la spacciassi e gli facessi concorrenza”: lo rivela Charlie Sheen proviene da Il Fatto Quotidiano.

“The Sinaloa Cartel drug traffickers had a problem with me because I was buying such an enormous amount of drugs that they had convinced themselves I was dealing it and competing with them,” he revealed, Charlie Sheen.

It’s incredible that I’m still alive. I’ve come to the conclusion that God or whoever, has plans for me,” Charlie Sheen told La Repubblica, during the launch of his autobiographical book “The book of Sheen. Un memoir,” where the 60-year-old actor recounted the key moments of his life, sparing nothing. Among the anecdotes, there was the one about his encounter with the extremely dangerous drug traffickers of the Sinaloa Cartel.

“They had it in for me because I was buying so much drugs that they had convinced themselves I was selling them and competing with them: they couldn’t believe that one man could use so much all at once,” he wrote.

The first words of the book are telling: “I was born dead.” The actor explains: “I had the noose around my neck, in practice I was already on the funeral car. But the doctor saved me by hitting me repeatedly. Second name, I’m called Irwin in his honor. What a great start, eh?”

Among the many memories is the life on set at ten years old, alongside his father Martin Sheen, in the Philippines for the cult film “Apocalypse Now” by Francis Ford Coppola. “The set was truly crazy beyond any imagination,” he commented, “They were filming all kinds of substances because there was a lot of pressure: we’re talking about Hollywood at its peak and people like Francis Ford Coppola and Marlon Brando. How much he ate! One day he came to lunch with us and Mom prepared a huge bowl of spaghetti with butter and Parmesan for everyone. Brando ate it up, leaving us speechless. We were incredulous. But he was a truly fascinating, intelligent, almost supernatural person.”

C2E2 2026 Photos, Part 2 of 2: Jessica Jones, The West Wing, and a Cavalcade of Comics

Previously on Midlife Crisis Crossover: It’s that time again! This weekend my wife Anne and I attended the latest edition of the Chicago Comic and Entertainment Exposition (“C2E2″), a three-day extravaganza of comic books, actors, creators, toys, props, publishers, freebies, plush dolls, variant covers, anime we don’t recognize, and walking and walking and walking and walking. We missed the inaugural 2010 gala and presciently skipped the February 2020 pre-shutdown soiree, but more often than not, whenever they send out the call to convene, we’re happy to answer... ...although we dragged our feet on committing to this year's edition as we waited for them to invite actors that we hadn't already met and who've performed in shows and/or movies we really enjoyed. Less than a month before showtime, we were finally feeling it and bought tickets. But we planned for a less epic adventure than usual. It was still fun! We have fewer anecdotes than usual, though. On the bright side, that means less typing for me and a shorter read for You, The Viewers At Home! (Not counting the next several paragraphs.) […]

Filme in der ARD: Apocalypse Now – Final Cut - hier anschauen

Spielfilm USA 2019 Während des Vietnamkriegs erhält Captain Willard einen Sonderauftrag: Er soll den desertierten Colonel Kurtz aufspüren und liquidieren. Angeblich hält dieser sich mit seiner Einheit im kambodschanischen Dschungel verborgen. An Bord eines Patrouillenbootes machen sich Willard und seine Leute dorthin auf. Am Ende ihrer Odyssee erreichen sie die leichenübersäte Steinzeitwelt des wahnsinnig gewordenen Elite-Offiziers, der alle Regeln der Zivilisation außer Kraft gesetzt hat. Mit „Apocalypse - Final Cut“, der neuesten Version seines Meisterwerks, die Francis Ford Coppola erstmals 2019 auf dem Tribeca Film Festival vorstellte, vermittelt Coppola einen realistischen Eindruck vom moralisch zweifelhaftesten Krieg, den die USA je führte. Die ursprüngliche Kurzfassung vermochte dies nur bedingt. Mit Marlon Brando, Robert Duvall, Martin Sheen, Frederic Forrest, Dennis Hopper, Harrison Ford u.a. | Buch: John Milius | Regie: Francis Ford Coppola

Francis Ford Coppola – „Apocalypse Now – Final Cut“ (1979)

Der Wahnsinn begann mit einem Befehl. „Terminate with extreme prejudice.“ Die Mission: einen amerikanischen Offizier zu liquidieren, weil er sich der Logik des Krieges in Vietnam entzogen hat. Ausgestiegen. Oder aufgestiegen? In einen Zustand, in dem Vernunft nicht mehr messbar ist. „Apocalypse Now“ ist kein Antikriegsfilm. Er ist ein Dokument des imperialen Wahns. Er glaubt nicht an Erlösung. Auch nicht an Erkenntnis. (ARD, Wh)
