Megyn Kelly criticized the Golden Globe-nominated movie “Conclave” and called out the actors in a spoiler-filled rant for their roles in the “anti-Catholic” film.

The film, which has a 93% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes, portrays religious leaders selecting a new pope while uncovering dark secrets and corruption within the Roman Catholic Church. Based on Robert Harris’ 2016 novel, the movie has received six Golden Globes nominations.

Kelly took to X ahead of the Golden Globes Sunday evening to criticize the film and scold the actors who starred in it.

Kelly expressed her disappointment, saying, “Just made the huge mistake of watching the much-celebrated ‘Conclave’ & it is the most disgusting anti-Catholic film I have seen in a long time.” She singled out actors Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci, John Lithgow, and director Edward Berger for their involvement. Kelly also revealed a major spoiler from the movie: “They make THE POPE INTERSEX!”

“There are almost no redeeming characters in the movie – every cardinal is morally bankrupt/repulsive,” she went on. “The only exception of course is the intersex pope (who – surprise! – has female reproductive parts) & the cardinal who keeps her secret – bc of course that kind of Catholic secret-keeping must be lionized.

“I’m disgusted. What a thing to release to streaming just in time for Christmas. They would never do this to Muslims, but Christians/Catholics are always fair game to mock/belittle/smear.”

“Conclave” is up for Original Score, Screenplay of a Motion Picture, and Drama Motion Picture. Director Edward Berger, actor Ralph Fiennes and supporting actress Isabella Rossellini were also nominated.

Kelly’s post saw a mixed response from her fans across all religions.

“Try being Mormon (church of Jesus Christ). It’s a double whammy: Christian which a lot of other Christians make fun of. We get it from both sides,” one user wrote.

Others broke with Kelly and bashed the Vatican and Pope as “corrupt.”

“They are not what you think they are,” said one user. “They don’t represent Christ. Huge difference between being a Christian and what they are doing in the Vatican.”
