WATCH: Actor Jim Caviezel Trends on Twitter As His QAnon Rant Goes Viral
Passion of the Christ actor Jim Caviezel spoke at a right-wing Covid-19 conspiracy conference Saturday about his latest movie and ventured into an “adrenochroming” conspiracy theory popular within the QAnon movement.
The actor is the lead in the upcoming film, Sound of Freedom, which focuses on Tim Ballard. Ballard was a key figure in the QAnon movement “Save the Children,” pushing a conspiracy theory that top Democrat politicians and Hollywood celebrities were harvesting children’s blood.
This theory was a central part of the Pizzagate conspiracy that resulted in an armed gunman entering Washington, D.C. pizza restaurant Comet Ping Pong.
The conference where Caviezel spoke is focusing on the “loss of liberties” due to Covid-19 and is scheduled to end with a mask burning.

Caviezel has been roundly criticized for appearing at the conference and spreading the debunked theory.

Jim is playing the part of a nonsensical and dangerous conspiracy theorist to perfection. https://t.co/9GtwxFYwcN

While promoting his upcoming role as a fictionalized version of Tim Ballard of Operation Underground Railroad, a group that has tried very hard to claim it has no QAnon connections! https://t.co/lT69OHmZk1
