Scream VII actress Melissa Barrera has been “quietly” dropped by Spyglass Studios from the upcoming project after speaking out about the ongoing Israel-Gaza conflict, Variety reports.
Barrera recently posted several statements on her Instagram story critiquing coverage of the war—“Western media only shows the [Israeli] side. Why do they do that, I will let you deduce for yourself”—and the war itself: “Gaza is currently being treated like a concentration camp,” she wrote.
“Cornering everyone together, with no where to go, no electricity no water … People have learnt nothing from our histories. And just like our histories, people are still silently watching it all happen. THIS IS GENOCIDE & ETHNIC CLEANSING,” she posted in another to her one million followers.
