Fired After Voiced Palestine, Melissa Barrera Reveals Actor's Support Scream 7

JAKARTA - Melissa Barrera opened her voice after being fired from the Scream franchise after voicing criticism of Israel. He also openly expressed support for Palestine on various occasions.

The Sam Carpenter actor in the Scream franchise was supposed to star in the same role for the latest film Scream. But he was removed from the project at the end of November after the production house allegedly did not accept Melissa Barrera's post.

Through his latest interview, Barrera revealed that at first he found it difficult but he felt that the support given by his fellow actors was very meaningful.

"Of course it's difficult because I think a lot, but I'm very lucky," Melissa Barrera quoted THR as saying.

I received a lot of support from the people around me: my team and my publicization - they really took me. At first everything felt sad because I really care about the franchise. It was really bad when it happened," he explained.

Director Matt Bettinelli-Olpin who worked on two Scream films revealed that Melissa Barrera was a good person.

Melisa (Barrera) is very strong. You can see it in her appearance. When you are friends with her, you can feel that," said Olpin.

Melissa Barrera also revealed the support her co-star, Jenna Ortega, gave after the news circulated.

"We spoke and I really love him. He really supports me and we are brothers," said Melissa Barrera.

When asked if he had the potential to return to the Scream franchise, Barrera admitted there were a lot of considerations about it.

"I learned not to say no, but there are a lot of things that have to happen so Sam can come back," said Melissa Barrera.

"For now, the next page, and we will see what happens in the future," he said.

Some time ago, Neve Campbell was announced back to the latest film Scream after Melissa Barrera was declared out of the franchise.
