... that Jacques Drollet said he would have Marlon Brando arrested if Brando ever returned to Tahiti?

Source: https://www.maxim.com/entertainment/last-tango-brando-island (note that Sancton refers to "Jacques-Denis Drollet": when Drollet was involved in politics, he was just "Jacques", so that's what I called him when writing the article, but after he retired, his nephew Jacqui Drollet got involved in politics too, so people started referring to the older one as "Jacques-Denis". It's the same person.)

New enough and long enough. QPQ present. Wow, what a story this is part of, though maybe "the actor" could be added to the hook in case people don't know who Brando is (promoter's option). No textual issues. Good to go. Sammi Brie (she/her · t · c) 05:51, 10 May 2025 (UTC)Reply

@DragonflySixtyseven and Sammi Brie: per discussion at WT:DYK, I'm pulling this one out of queue because of unresolved sourcing questions. Happy to repromote immediately when those are resolved :) theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 18:56, 27 May 2025 (UTC)Reply
