‘Scream VI’ star Melissa Barerra: ‘Ghostface can come from anywhere’ | ABCNL

[@Muhammad.d24]

I’m so glad she’s finally getting her recognition, she did an amazing job

[@reginoramos9030]

Exactly she did amazing. She was the best part of the new scream 6 and Gale Courtney Cox ♥️♥️♥️

[@johnnygunzfilmbuff7821]

@@reginoramos9030 I agree good character and good chemistry with Jenna Ortega.

[@GRNKRBY]

And now Hollywood has thrown her away (well, at least the Scream execs). 😢

Melissa Barrera cemented herself as a powerhouse in this film. Such a strong lead

[@cristopherperalta]

Agreed!

[@JuustJayden]

She's so well spoken and handles sensitive topics with ease and authenticity!

When scream V came out, I wasn't too keen on Melissa Barrera. However, with scream VI she stepped it up and I was heavily impressed!

I'm so proud of her! She deserves it all! Hard worker conquering, what's new? 😊

@Villainy Outsider You're entitled to your irrelevant and non factual opinion. The prove is in the pudding, and all of her success is not for nothing.

[@jboao]

look at this girl getting recognition! so proud of Melissa, she shined in Scream 6!

[@DocDarkness]

There's been lots of praise sent Jennas way and rightly so brcause she's phenomenal but Melissa deserves just as much of that praise. I loved her so much in this movie and the two of them together is magic

Melissa is absolutely incredible and extremely talented! She’s deserves all the recognition in the world. She’s going places and as a Scream fan since I was 6 years old, I’m grateful we have her apart of the franchise. A beautiful, bad ass Latina woman leading a successful huge franchise with such a humble spirit. ❤

[@Final_guy_vic]

@Villainy Outsider what’s a joke is you taking the time to write that, how about u grow up.

[@isaaccrist8642]

When 5 came out all my friends were gushing over Jenna and said Melissa was wooden and I felt the opposite, I actually didn’t like Tara as a character but loved Sam, and this time I came around to liking Tara and all my friends like Sam now, I prefer 5 but 6 is good too and it’s pretty great seeing my favorite horror franchise make a successful comeback, and it’s nice to see all Melissa’s haters eat their words in the end, must feel very vindicating for her

[@wiilover07]

I hate the race baiting of the interviewer. She answered those beautifully.

[@anthonystrader8958]

I am so proud of Melissa glad that she getting her recognition hard work is paying off for her. she did an amazing job as sam in scream 6

[@FancyAlly]

She was great in Scream 5 & 6 as well as In The Heights ❤

[@kidprince8578]

I admit I didn't like her much in Scream 5 but in Scream 6 she did such an amazing job that I finally started viewing her as a main character.

[@DocDarkness]

You know there isn't an agenda with casting when you don't care what color the skin is of the actors. I didnt even notice and couldn't care less. I fell in love with them because they are well written and acted. That's how you do it Hollywood! Don't force people into roles simply to check diversity boxs. Write roles and cast the best actors to fill them regardless of ethnic background. We're all people at the end of the day.

[@bombastic__sideeye]

Proud of Melissa for her performance in scream 6, she proved the haters wrong!!!

[@jesuscastellom7432]

[@andreweggleston4410]

You know a thought occurred to me back during the first Scream 1996 or the second Scream movie 1997 if a main character like a Latino, Latina, Black, or Asian it would have raised a lot of eyebrows and their would be a lot of hate and racism I'm South American Paraguayan so I guess I can relate but I had no hate or racism in my life but I grew up in American and I live in Vermont but I bet Melissa has faced racism and hate in her life in the acting business she doesn't and doesn't have to talk about but you can it hurts her but she seems very strong about it.

[@jpdaboss626]

Go Melissa!! Speaking Disney & Marvel projects into your future!

[@Yolezevahc]

My favorite S6 interview so far!

[@haileyhardin1997]

Who’s else wants Melissa Barerra who’s playing Sam in scream 2022 and scream 6 to be in Wednesday season 2 because Jenna Ortega and Melissa Barerra were both in scream 2022 and scream 6 as sisters as Sam and Tara in scream movies started with scream 2022,also known as scream 5 and scream 6 that was out march 10/2023.

@A Smith First of all, they're both Mexican and with the same skin color, second I have Mexican in me as well, and third I can really care less about her ethnicity, that's not why, it's because she's literally everywhere and it's starting to get extreamly annoying.

[@MayTheOddsBeInYourFavor]

For fucks sake, the least realistic thing about the movie was entering A BODEGA for cripes sake and not immediately..I mean IMMEDIATELY…locking the door when two girls come in screaming and obviously scared. Like bodegas are hotbeds for shootings and stabbings in NYC. And a guy with a knife is gonna come in and take out everyone? This obviously wasn’t the Bronx. That Scream mask would’ve had Timberland boot marks all over it from getting curb stomped by all the guys in there. But otherwise EXCELLENT movie.

[@mikehalpern384]

[@thejonavarkofficial]

She isn't very bright on the topic of diversity and it's disappointing for her to just say "That's not the discourse." Yeah babe it's the discourse you don't want to talk about. Lol. Horror movies have historically excluded minorities/killed us off violently. It's okay to not be educated on history, but she shouldn't be dismissing the topic. Shame EDIT: I agree that her question was answered gracefully. I didn't say it was a wrong answer, I was just expecting a more detailed answer and was hoping she spoke more about it in the sense of the history of minorities being excluded from the genre.

[@aleczavala5010]

What are you talking about? She gave a great answer. She talked about how it doesn’t feel like tokenism and how she was chosen because she was fit for the role due to her skills not just because of her ethnicity, that’s a great way to show representation.

[@thejonavarkofficial]

@@aleczavala5010 Right but part of having representation is addressing the issues that have been present for a long time. When you have that privilege you need to speak on it and not dismiss it.
