The entertainment industry is once again in turmoil, this time over differing opinions on the Israel-Gaza conflict. In the wake of this divisive issue, Hollywood has found itself deeply divided, leading to stringent guidelines on what talent can express publicly about the situation. This has resulted in high-profile firings, including Melissa Barrera being removed from Scream 7 and Susan Sarandon being dropped by her representatives, due to their pro-Palestinian comments on social media.<\/p>\n
Amidst this controversy, Stranger Things actor Noah Schnapp, who is Jewish, has taken a contrasting stance, voicing his strong support for Israel on social media platforms. Schnapp\u2019s public support for Israel even extended offline, as evidenced by a viral TikTok video in which he and his friends distributed \u201cZionism is sexy\u201d stickers in a cafe.<\/p>\n
However, this has ignited a heated debate online, especially among supporters of Barrera, who criticize Hollywood for penalizing her while Schnapp\u2019s outspoken political views seem to have gone unchecked. Numerous social media users have expressed outrage, calling Schnapp\u2019s comments \u201cdisgusting\u201d and \u201csickening\u201d and demanding that Netflix remove him from Stranger Things 5.<\/p>\n
Despite the controversy surrounding Schnapp\u2019s remarks, it appears unlikely that Netflix will remove him from the upcoming season of Stranger Things. Other studios like Spyglass Media have taken a zero-tolerance stance towards perceived antisemitism, leading to Barrera\u2019s dismissal from Scream 7. If Netflix follows a similar policy, Schnapp may not face repercussions for his statements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
