As vegan actor Peter Sarsgaard put it in a recent interview with Men’s Journal, pretty much everyone in Hollywood is vegan: “On movie sets actually it’s not that bad because there are a lot of vegans working in the entertainment industry. The movie that I just wrapped I was actually wondering what the meat eating actors were doing!”
• James Cameron‘s quest to convert everyone to vegan eating is working, as evidenced by NPR radio host Guy Raz: 

  Interviewed director James Cameron for an upcoming episode on curiosity. By the end of it, he convinced me to go vegan. Starting Sep 1.
