As condemnation of Trump’s statement mounted, public attention turned back to a September 2025 episode of Piers Morgan Uncensored, where the Primetime Emmy Award winning actor addressed the murder of Charlie Kirk during a speaking engagement at Utah Valley University.
The 60-year-old British broadcaster asked Reiner for his “immediate gut reaction” to the news that the conservative activist, 31, had been fatally shot Sept. 10.
“It’s beyond belief what happened to him,” the Castle Rock Entertainment co-founder told Morgan at the time, lamenting that he had “unfortunately [seen] the video” that documented the shooting. “That should never happen to anybody. I don’t care what your political beliefs are. That’s not acceptable. That’s not a solution to solving problems.”
