Samuel L. Jackson says he doesn't care if Donald Trump supports no longer see his movies.

The actor did not mince his words in an interview with Esquire this week when he was asked about the president of the US.

"This motherf***** is like ruining the planet and all kinds of other crazy ****," the actor said. "And the people think that's okay. It's not f*****g okay. And if you're not saying anything, then you're complicit."

The Avengers star says he is not worried about antagonising Trump supporters.

"I know how many motherf*****s hate me. 'I'm never going to see a Sam Jackson movie again.' F*** I care? If you never went to another movie I did in my life, I'm not going to lose any money. I already cashed that check. F*** you. Burn up my videotapes. I don't give a f***."

The internationally-acclaimed actor also had a message for critics who told him to "stick to acting" and not meddle in politics.

"No, motherf*****. I'm a human being that feels a certain way. And some of this s*** does affect me, because if we don't have health care … and my relatives get sick, they're going to call my rich a**," he said.

"I want them to have health care. I want them to be able to take care of themselves. This is how I feel. And I count to 100 some days before I hit 'send,' because I know how that s*** is."
