Morgan Freeman is urging members of the public to get their COVID-19 vaccines in a new PSA.

The 83-year-old actor has teamed up with The Creative Coalition and the National Blue Ribbon Task Force for the new video, which is the first piece in a campaign to reassure hesitant Americans of the vaccine’s safety and efficacy.

“I’m not a doctor, but I trust science. And I’m told that, for some reason, people trust me,” Morgan says in the PSA. “So here I am to say I trust science and I got the vaccine. If you trust me, you’ll get the vaccine.”

“In math, it’s called the distributive property. In people, it’s called taking care of one another. Get the vaccine. Help make our world a safe place for us to enjoy ourselves again. Please,” he continues.

One celebrity had a hilarious reaction to getting the vaccine. Check out the video here!

Anne Hathaway, Morgan Freeman, Helen Mirren, & More to Lead 'Solos' Series for Amazon

Amazon has landed a star-studded cast to lead the upcoming dramatic anthology series Solos.

The new series is being developed by executive producer and showrunner David Weil, who created the show Hunters for Amazon.

Oscar winners Anne Hathaway, Morgan Freeman, and Helen Mirren are all part of the series, along with Uzo Aduba, Nicole Beharie, Anthony Mackie, Dan Stevens, and Constance Wu.

Solos is a dramatic and thought-provoking seven-part anthology series that explores the deeper meaning of human connection, as explored through the lens of the individual. Solos will tell unique character-driven stories, each from a different perspective and moment in time, that illuminate that even during our most seemingly isolated moments, in the most disparate of circumstances, we are all connected through the human experience.

Sam Taylor-Johnson, Zach Braff, Tiffany Johnson, and David Weil will direct episodes.

“I am beyond thrilled to be bringing Solos to life alongside this group of artists who I so deeply admire. I created this piece with a desire to capture stories about connection, hope and the search for that common hum of humanity that binds us all. I’m immensely grateful to Jennifer Salke and my incredible partners at Amazon for their unwavering support and collaboration on this special project,” Weil said in a statement.

Solos is expected to premiere on Amazon Prime Video later in 2021.
