President-elect Donald Trump’s naming of Mel Gibson as one of his “special envoys” to Hollywood surprised many, including Gibson himself. Trump on Thursday said Gibson and his fellow pro-Trump actors Sylvester Stallone and Jon Voight would act as his “eyes and ears” in the industry.

Mel Gibson said he was surprised to learn that he will serve as a special envoy for Hollywood to President-elect Donald Trump. On Thursday, Trump also said Sylvester Stallone and Jon Voight would serve in that position.

Donald Trump wants to make Hollywood “bigger, better and stronger” and has chosen Mel Gibson, Jon Voight and Sylvester Stallone to help.
