Melissa Barrera, star of the rebooted “Scream” franchise, has been dropped from the upcoming film “Scream 7” due to her social media posts about the Israel-Hamas war. The news comes after the actor shared multiple posts on Instagram in support of Palestinians.<\/p>\n

She wrote in one post on Instagram stories,<\/p>\n

Gaza is currently being treated like a concentration camp. Cornering everyone together, with nowhere to go, no electricity no water \u2026 People have learned nothing from our histories. And just like our histories, people are still silently watching it all happen. THIS IS GENOCIDE & ETHNIC CLEANSING.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When reached for comment, a spokesperson for Spyglass Media Group, the production company behind the film, referred USA TODAY to a statement shared with Variety that their “stance is unequivocally clear,<\/p>\n

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.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Barrera helped revitalize the franchise with Scream, the 2022 feature that earned $137.7 million globally and combined generations of cast members from the franchise. Barrera also starred in Scream VI, which was released in March and topped $168.9 million at the global box office.<\/p>\n

In a since-deleted post to X, formerly Twitter, director Christopher Landon seemed to speak out about Barrera as he wrote,<\/p>\n

This is my statement: Everything sucks. Stop yelling. This was not my decision to make.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
