At the height of the controversy, she was even removed from the campaign of the film by Netflix.
The actress commented: “I can only keep working, putting all my soul in the characters I interpret and demonstrating, in my personal life, that I have nothing to do with the negative image that some planned to create from me,” said Karla Gasco to the EFE agency.
She denounced that she was the target of a “hatred campaign”: “You have never heard anything from my mouth against someone because of the color of your skin or any movement that tries to undermine the rights of any human or minority,” he added.
