Emilia Peréz is leading the Oscars run with 13 nominations, including Best Actress for leading star Karla, who is the first openly transgender person to be nominated in the category.
Karla (pictured), who plays the titular character in Emilia Peréz, came under fire when historic posts she made criticising Islam, the Oscars and the late George Floyd resurfaced online.
Zoe is the favourite for Best Supporting Actress after winning at the Golden Globes (pictured)] 'We're living in such an era where social media gives you the permission to be so different from yourself, so most of the time, people sort of weaponise the fact that they can hide behind these devices to just spew so much hatred and intolerance and inflexibility.
Zoe (pictured with Karla) previously said she was 'disappointed' by the scandal and she has now pointedly commented on how people 'spew so much hatred and intolerance' online.
Zoe Saldana has pointedly discussed people 'spewing hatred' on social media amid the controversy surrounding her Emilia Peréz co-star Karla Sofia Gascon.
