Don't Look Up Easter Eggs Make Meryl Streep's President Even Worse
Meryl Streep’s President Orlean is the science-skeptical head of state in Don’t Look Up that dismisses the plausibility of an apocalypse, and Easter eggs in the film reveal the true extent of her iniquity. Orlean is one of the film’s primary antagonists: she possesses the power to respond to the danger posed by a comet discovered by PhD candidate Kate Dibiasky (Jennifer Lawrence) but neglects the claims of her and tenured professor, Dr. Randall Mindy (Leonardo DiCaprio). Orlean is a president that is focused on the power of her position, and how to retain it in the upcoming midterms, rather than the responsibility she has for her country.
