Do you think his career will nosedive over this?


Vancouver Based actor, Sean Hunter, the "Peloton Husband" in the now infamous role in a commercial he landed that has been denounced as SEXIST by social media is speaking out over his fears of his current career as an ELEMENTARY TEACHER and Actor being sunk over this!!

He said the shock of being thrust in this negative spotlight caused a nearly 10% drop in the company's stsock has him worried that this will damage his fledging acting career and his status as a teacher

He said "I currently sit here hoping that i'll be able to continue auditioning for commercials without any taint, and that if my students happen to find the commercial and recognize me, they won't thinkabout me any different than they already know me"

The commercial was called "The Gift That Gives Back" as a husband gifts his wife an expensive exercise bike from the company and she was then gasping with happiness and then seen in montages of a "year long" documentation of herself working out in sweaty days while her husband watches and then finishes a year later looking THE SAME and said she couldn't have done this without him.

Viewers immediately trashed the commercial causing the stock to sink and wiping out nearly a BILLION in value. They said it was misogynistic implying that only women need to keep their figure to stay "beautiful" while the husband laid back and did nothing but watch her

It fell ONCE AGAIN by 5% losing more money as the stock was at 37 share on Monday and is now at 31 a share by Thursday.

He was asked to give his perspective after the criticisms said that his FRIENDS found the commercial to be "positive"

One of his friends joked "I always knew you would make the big time" but he said "I appreciated the compliments, but in my eyes it was just a small role. I was simply grateful for the experience"

But his life turned upside down when he saw the commercial had thousands of down votes and couldn't believe what was happening.

Now he said his 5 seconds of air time created malicious feedback as his friend now says he's a symbol of PATRIARCHY after this

He said "Unfortunately. the problem is that viewers can mistake an actor as that person after they've seen themon television instead of a pereson given a script with no opinion on what they are told to portray"...

Hunter now wonders what repercussions will come of this as he prides myself of being a good teacher and developing actor and can only hope he can recover from this and that it doesn't hurt his overall career..and he hopes his co-star, the woman who had 25 seconds of airtime doesn't have the same falling out

The company is now expected to STOP running the commercial for the holidays which was expected to be its "top seller"

His IMDB page showed he only starred in a few roles such as Lucifer when it filmed in Canada.

Do you think his career is gonna nosedive from this?
