Melissa Barrera Says Acting Offers ‘Went Quiet for Like 10 Months’ After ‘Scream’ Firing; Fans Tell Her: ‘What They Did to You Is So Messed Up. I’m So Sorry’


Melissa Barrera says fans keep coming up to her and saying how messed up it was that she was fired from the "Scream" franchise.

At fan conventions, for instance, parades of ‘Scream’ devotees are prone to sympathetically allude to the controversy between autograph signings, or asking how she’s doing.” While offers stopped coming in for the most part after the “Scream” firing, Barrera is now finally getting back to work. She’s currently filming a new espionage thriller series for Peacock alongside Simu Liu that she calls “exactly what I needed to ease myself back into the industry and do something fun that’s not going to destroy me emotionally.”
