Zoe Saldana feels "sad" about Karla Sofia Gascon's controversial historic tweets. The 46-year-old actress starred alongside Karla, 52, in the award-winning musical film 'Emilia Perez', but Zoe has distanced herself from her co-star's controversial social media posts, which recently resurfaced online. Asked about Karla's posts during a Q and A in London, Zoe explained: "It makes me really sad because I don’t support [it], and I don’t have any tolerance for any negative rhetoric towards people of any group.
"I can only attest to the experience that I had with each and every individual that was a part, that is a part, of this film, and my experience and my interactions with them was about inclusivity and collaboration and racial, cultural, and gender equity. And it just saddens me." Zoe insisted that she wants to spread a message of "love" and "support".
The Hollywood star reflected: "It saddens me that we are having to face this setback right now. "But I’m happy that you’re all here and that you’re all still showing up for 'Emilia' because the message that this film has is so powerful and the change that it can bring forward to communities that are marginalised day in and day out is important. And all that I can attest is that all of us that came together to tell this story, we came together for love and for respect and curiosity, and we will continue to spread that message.
That’s all we can say right now." Karla has already apologised for having "caused hurt" with.
