Piers Morgan has blasted Ewan McGregor after he refused to appear on his show.
The actor was meant to chat about his new film T2 Trainspotting on ITV’s Good Morning Britain – however, he was a no show when Ewan found out Piers would be hosting.
Piers tweeted out his thoughts on the Scotsman’s decision not to chat with him but has now written a lengthy column on the situation.
“Ewan McGregor is a very angry man when it comes to his politics,” he wrote.

Writing in his column for the Daily Mail, Piers outlined that he believes Ewan didn’t appear on Good Morning Britain because of their differing political opinions.
“He refused point blank to do it unless I was removed and it was performed by my co-host Susanna Reid,” he explained.
“This demand was denied, as were further demands for the interview to be severely shortened and to be restricted purely to talk about his new movie, T2 Trainspotting.
“So, enraged that he couldn’t do the interview on the terms he wanted, McGregor left.

“A flick through his Twitter feed today revealed a man absolutely enraged by both Donald Trump’s ascent to the presidency, and by Britain’s decision to leave the European Union.
“His fury at the latter may strike some as slightly disingenuous given that McGregor himself quit the EU years ago to go and live the life of a pampered millionaire movie star in Hollywood.
“But I’ll leave others to decide whether that is hypocritical or not.
“One thing’s for sure: Ewan McGregor wants you all to know, very very loudly, that he HATES TRUMP AND BREXIT.”
