Actress Tatiana Maslany, known for her role in She-Hulk, has urged her fans to cancel their Disney+ subscriptions following the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel’s talk show. Maslany took to her Instagram stories to show support for Kimmel after his show was pulled off the air by ABC due to controversial remarks made about Charlie Kirk.
Charlie Kirk, aged 31, was tragically killed while speaking at Utah Valley University. Kimmel’s comments insinuated that the suspected shooter, Tyler Robinson, was affiliated with the Republican party and suggested that the “Maga gang” was exploiting Kirk’s death for political gain.
Sharing a behind-the-scenes photo from the set of She-Hulk: Attorney At Law, Tatiana Maslany encouraged her followers to cancel their subscriptions to Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN. Despite Kimmel’s show being suspended, several other celebrities have come to his defense, highlighting the controversial nature of his remarks.
In response to the backlash, Kimmel also criticized President Donald Trump, mocking his response to the situation. ABC announced the indefinite suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, with network affiliates expressing strong objections to Kimmel’s comments.
Notable figures like Ben Stiller, John Legend, Alison Brie, and Josh Gad have voiced support for Kimmel amidst the controversy. Hollywood unions, including SAG-AFTRA and WGA, have stood by the TV host following the cancellation of his show.
In a tweet, Trump celebrated Kimmel’s show being canceled, criticizing the host’s talent and ratings. Despite the ongoing debate, support continues to pour in for Kimmel from various corners of the entertainment industry.
