Melissa Barrera Dropped From ‘Scream VII’ Due To Controversial Comments

Dammit!!!!

Wonder what she said. I'm not on X/Twitter, can you post any further details that emerge?

Part 7 is imploding.

- Radio Silence, the directors from parts 5 and 6, are gone replaced by Christopher Landon.
- There were reports that they were struggling to schedule Jenna Ortega.*
- Now we're being told Melissa Barrera is out.
- Neve Campbell is unlikely to return unless they pay her a boatload and give her character a story/ending she finds fitting.

Shitshow!


* A bloody disgusting article from today about Barrera no longer being involved mentions this once more;

Ortega’s involvement in Scream 7 is also up in the air at this time, with no confirmation she’ll be returning.

Why not just warn her first?

Ruining her career only for this...?

If she's Pro Palestine, then good ridden to her

an opinion is controversial ?

She should be sold into the sex trade over there.

Although I did like the two latest Scream films, she had very little to do with it. I don't think she was a good pick as a new main girl. She's no Neve Campbell.

“Spyglass’ stance is unequivocally clear: We have zero tolerance for antisemitism or the incitement of hate in any form, including false references to genocide, ethnic cleansing, Holocaust distortion or anything that flagrantly crosses the line into hate speech,” a Spyglass spokesperson tells Variety.

In the wake of the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attacks and Israel’s subsequent attacks on Gaza, Barrera has been posting on her Instagram about the conflict, resharing a post that accuses Israel of “genocide and ethnic cleansing” and one from Jewish Currents magazine about distorting “the Holocaust to boost the Israeli arms industry.” Spyglass quickly cut ties with the “In the Heights” actor following the posts. Barrera was slated to star in the next “Scream” outing after leading the fifth and sixth entries over the past two years.
