This is the best summary I could come up with:

The producer of a surprise US box office hit widely embraced by followers of the extremist Q-Anon conspiracy theory is attempting a long-shot run for president in Mexico.

Shortly before a deadline late on Thursday, Eduardo Verástegui, producer of Sound of Freedom, filed paperwork to run as an independent candidate in the June 2024 election.

He hinted at a presidential run for months, posting a video in which he called on his followers to build “the Mexican dream” and riding on the surprise success of the independent feature film Sound of Freedom.

The movie, about a US federal agent busting a child trafficking ring in Colombia, has taken almost $200m in the US and was released across Latin America and Europe on 31 August.

The film’s star, Jim Caviezel, has also denied links to QAnon but has echoed claims made by the conspiracy theory’s supporters.

“The parasites of power have killed the Pan with a shotgun model Xóchitl calibre 666 … today that party and Morena are exactly the same,” said Verástegui in a clip from 5 July.
