Orlando Jones joins Gabrielle Union in making allegations of racism and discriminatory practices involving the production company Fremantle Media.
Jones was recently dropped from the cast of Starz’s American Gods in what the studio claims to be due to “… The complex mythology of the source material…”
SAG-AFTRA today released the following statement:
“After initial meetings with Gabrielle Union and her representatives about her experiences on America’s Got Talent, and after learning more about Orlando Jones’s experience on American Gods, SAG-AFTRA is expanding its investigation of Fremantle Media.
“Our enforcement actions are handled confidentially to protect the members involved, and we typically do not publicize these matters unless the affected members request that we do so.
“We have nothing further to report at this time.”
