Why Isnt Fred Savage In The Princess Bride Reunion?

Fred Savage, who played The Grandson in the 80s cult classic The Princess Bride, was absent from a virtual reunion of the cast on September 13, 2020. The cast reunited for a fundraiser for the Wisconsin Democrats, with director Rob Reiner and actors Cary Elwes and Ryan Reynolds as the main guests. Fred’s absence was due to his younger brother Ben’s birthday, which he was unable to attend.

The reunion featured a framing story where a grandfather reads a favorite book to his sick grandson, Fred Savage. The book, The Princess Bride by S. Morgenstern, is about the most beautiful woman. Savage was part of the recent Quibi reunion and also reprised his role for the Once Upon a Deadpool trailer in late 2018.

Sources close to the actor confirm that he was in the loop about the Zoom reunion but was unable to participate because he was celebrating his younger brother Ben’s birthday. The Virtual Princess Bride Reunion drew around 100,000 viewers, and the Once Upon a Deadpool trailer teases the PG-13 movie with a fun Princess Bride twist, including an appearance by Fred Savage himself.

Fred Savage’s absence from the reunion raises questions about his political leanings and his involvement in the film. He believes family comes first and that his role in The Princess Bride remains iconic.
