The Associated Press shared his comments on TikTok, which can be viewed below:
I think that when Bob Iger talks about what a shame it [the strike] is, he needs to remember, in 1980, CEOs like him made 30 times what their lowest worker was making. Now, Bob Iger makes 400 times what his lowest worker is, and I think that’s a f—— shame, Bob — and maybe you should take a look in the mirror and ask yourself, why is that? And not only why is that, is it okay? Is it morally okay? Is it ethically okay that you make that much more than your lowest worker? And if so, why? Why is that okay? If your response is that’s just the way business is done now, that’s just the way corporations work now, well, that sucks, and that makes you a s—– person, if that’s your answer. So you should come up with a better answer than that.
Sean Gunn has made significant contributions to Disney and Marvel through his portrayal of Kraglin Obfonteri in the “Guardians of the Galaxy” trilogy, as well as his motion capture performance for Rocket. Notably, he is the brother of James Gunn, the acclaimed director and writer behind the franchise.
