Melissa Barrera broke her silence after her dismissal from Spyglass, which excluded her from the cast of Scream 7. The Latin American actress hasn’t had a good time and yet, faced with the possibility of a return to the franchise, she leaves door ajar.
The dismissal Of Melissa Barrera from Spyglass profoundly shook not only the troubled production of Scream 7, but also the world of cinema. The young actress, star of Scream (2022) e Scream VI (2023) was kicked out of the franchise for posting on social media some comments on the Israel-Hamas conflict. To the microphones of The Hollywood Reporterfor the first time, the 33-year-old commented on the fuss that overwhelmed her, admitting that she hadn’t had an easy time.
Despite his career has been affected, forcing her to abandon the saga that led her to success, Barrera is convinced that it is everyone’s duty to speak openly about the problems that are shaking the world.
Nothing about this situation makes me happy. It was all very sad, because I really, deeply care about the franchise. It’s really bad that it had to happen that way. It’s definitely difficult, because I was in a very confused state of mind.
The star, in any case, was able to count on the comfort and support of many fans and collaborators, who never abandoned her in that dark period. “I was very lucky – she continued, moved – I received so much support from the people around me: my team and, in particular, my publicists, who supported me.”
And what if, one day, the possibility arises rejoin the Scream franchise, how would you react? The eventuality is remote, yet, in the world of cinema, everything is possible. This is a lesson that Melissa learned the hard way, so she doesn’t rule anything out. “I learned that you should never say never, but a lot would have to happen for Sam to return. For now, let’s turn the page, to the next chapter, and then we’ll see what the future holds.”
Shortly after the dismissal of Melissa Barrerathe news arrived that also Jenna Ortega is out of the cast of the new chapter of the horror saga. Shortly thereafter, here is also the director’s lump sum Christopher Landon. When the production seemed on the verge of falling apart, however, the situation recovered. He will be at the helm of the project Kevin Williamson. That’s not all: the historic victim of Ghostface, Neve Campbell/Sydney Prescott, confirmed his return to the franchise. Rumor has it that we may soon read the same announcement from Courtney Coxbut everything still needs to be verified.
