Sofia Carson is speaking out about the backlash facing her popular new Netflix movie, “Purple Hearts.”
The film follows Cassie (Carson) a liberal singer-songwriter who marries a conservative Marine, Luke (played by Nicholas Galitzine), so she can get health insurance and pay for insulin which she needs to treat her Type 1 Diabetes.
“Purple Hearts” has been labeled as misogynist and racist for some of its content, including a scene where Luke makes a toast exclaiming, “This one is to life, love and hunting down some godd**n Arabs, baby!” Cassie confronts Luke about the remark but the film never addresses the moment again.
