LOL Tilda Swinton Says She Based Her Villainous Character on Ivanka Trump

Netflix

Tilda Swinton is starring in a new political satire about a young girl and her friendship with a hippo-like creature named Okja. Turns out, the actress is now saying she based her villainous antagonist character around the likes of Ivanka Trump. LOL!

In an interview with The Wrap, Tilda said, “When we shot in New York last summer, I stood watching the Republican convention on the television in our lunch break dressed as Lucy, watching a different daughter of a different dubious dynasty addressing, from a high podium, a big crowd with glossy blond hair, expensive orthodontics and modeling her Barbie-perfect modest pink dress (concurrently on sale online). Chicken? Egg?”

In Okja, Tilda plays Lucy Miranda, head of the evil corporation that genetically engineers Okja. Naturally, we see why she would choose Ivanka as her model.
