Netflix has finally addressed the controversy surrounding Amelia Paré's star Carla Sophia
00:05
Gaskin after a past social media post resurfaced, which caused major backlash.
00:11
In a recent podcast interview, Netflix chief content officer Bella Baggeria acknowledged
00:16
the situation and shared her thoughts on how it has impacted the film's success.
00:22
During an episode of The Town with Matthew Belloni podcast, Baggeria spoke about the
00:27
controversy and expressed disappointment that it had overshadowed the work of the many
00:31
people involved in the movie.
00:33
"...I think it's really a bummer for the 100 incredibly talented people who made an
00:39
amazing movie," Baggeria said.
00:41
"...And if you look at the nominations and all of these awards loved that it's received,
00:46
I think it's such a bummer that it distracted from that."
00:50
The backlash has raised questions about whether Netflix will change how it evaluates actors
00:54
before acquiring films.
00:57
When asked about this, Baggeria admitted that checking social media history is not a standard
01:02
practice in the industry.
01:03
"...It's not really common practice for people to vet social tweets that way," she
01:08
explained.
01:09
"...A lot of people are re-evaluating that.
01:11
I do think it is raising questions for a lot of people about re-evaluating that process."
01:18
She also highlighted the challenges of monitoring the social media activity of so many people
01:23
involved in Netflix productions.
01:25
However, she maintained that the streaming platform still stands by its decision to acquire
01:31
Amelia Perez despite the controversy.
01:33
"...If you asked me today, everything I know we would still buy the movie today.
01:38
That movie is incredible and it's creative and it's fun.
01:42
That's what you want.
01:43
And it resonated with a lot of people this year," Baggeria said.
01:48
Despite the ongoing debate, Netflix continues to push Amelia Perez forward, hoping that
01:53
the film's artistic achievements will not be overshadowed by past mistakes.
