Actress Whoopi Goldberg - MPI / CapitalPictures / Starface

Among the collaborations that no one expected, we can now add that of Whoopi Goldberg, actress and co-presenter of the talk show The View . The comic is the voiceover of a short film three minutes of animation published on social networks by environmental activists from Extinction Rebellion on the occasion of World Environment Day this Friday.

Titled The Gigantic Change , the film tells how, in 2050, the world's population managed to come together to save the planet from a climatic cataclysm.

The date was not chosen at random since it is the date on which many countries, including France, have committed to achieving carbon neutrality.

The ideal actress

George Lewin, co-director of the film, told Variety that Whoopi Goldberg was chosen because of his unique voice. According to him, she is the ideal actress to give weight to the message.

“She doesn't hesitate to give her opinion on environmental issues and she can inspire many fans. We sent the script to her agent and she quickly replied that she was ready. We couldn't believe it ”.
