Scream VII filmmaker Christopher Landon has responded to the news of Melissa Barrera‘s firing by Spyglass Media over her social media repostings over the Israel-Hamas conflict.
“This is my statement: 💔 Everything sucks. Stop yelling. This was not my decision to make,” Landon wrote on Twitter.
Barrera, who came to fame in Starz’s series Vida before being propelled to Warner Bros. feature musical In the Heights and 2022’s Scream and this year’s Scream VI as Sam Carpenter, sister of Jenna Ortega’s Tara Carpenter, reposted a series of Pro-Palestinian posts to her Instagram stories which were interpreted as being anti-Semitic by those close to the film production.
Post SAG-AFTRA strike, Spyglass Media has yet to announce any returning castmembers or new cast for Scream VII.
