Actress Melissa Barrera has been excluded from the Screams saga, in which she was the main character, due to pro-Palestinian posts she made on social networks. Spygalss, the company responsible for the production, believes that the Mexican company’s latest statements about the conflict in the Middle East incite hatred and are anti-Semitic.
“Spyglass’s position is unequivocally clear: we have no tolerance for anti-Semitism or hate speech in any form, including false references to genocide, ethnic cleansing, Holocaust distortion, or anything that clearly crosses the line into hate speech,” a Spyglass spokesperson said. A company representative told Variety about this.
Since the war between Israel and Hamas began on October 7, Melissa Barreira has spoken out on the issue on social media, defending Palestine. The actress accused Israel of “genocide and ethnic cleansing,” and also noted that the Western press pays more attention to the Israeli side.
“In recent weeks, I have been actively searching for videos and information about the Palestinian side, following accounts, etc. Why? Because Western media only shows the other side. Why they do this, I leave you to draw your own conclusion,” he wrote. in the post.
Melissa won’t be the only Screams actress who won’t be returning to the role. This Wednesday, Entertainment Tonight reported that Jenna Ortega, another leading lady, has asked her agency to terminate her contract with the producer following a situation with her co-star.
