The 73-year-old, who has over 150 different acting credits, added that he’s finding it difficult to focus on his job while watching the news coming out of the current administration. Pantoliano shared that he and his wife, Nancy Sheppard, had recently returned from Portugal and they are contemplating a move there. “We just got back,” he said. “We really love it there,” though he expressed concern about the 18-hour power blackout that hit Spain and Portugal last month. “The Matrix” star stressed that’s why “I keep a lot of cash at home, not a lot but enough to get me going for a couple of weeks,” cautioning any would-be robbers that “it’s buried and there’s no map!” If Pantoliano does move to Europe, he’ll join a growing list of celebs who have also departed following the election. “Desperate Housewives” star Eva Longoria told Marie Claire that she was “done” with life in “dystopian” America.

The world is on fire, it’s hard for me to concentrate.” Pantoliano and his wife, Nancy Sheppard, recently returned from a trip to Portugal, and they’re thinking of planting new roots abroad. “We just got back.
