Cromwell has starred in a number of films and TV shows, including Star Trek: First Contact, The Green Mile, Space Cowboys, and The Artist. He is best known for his role as a farmer whose life is changed by a pig in the movie “Babe.” The film changed Cromwell’s life as well, inspiring him to adopt a vegan diet and become involved in animal causes, including ending the use of animals in entertainment and research, factory farming, and spaying and neutering pets.

The Animal Legal Defense Fund (ALDF) was founded in 1979 to protect the lives and advance the interests of animals through the legal system.
