It's like, why was I angry? Why was I bitter? It wasn't meant to be, and I'm living a good life now. I don't need to. So when I was asked again the next day in two different interviews, the BBC and another one was alone with my friend, Dina Abedallah, I said the story in a different way. I said, I don't have any anger.

As a matter of fact, maybe if I was Warner Brothers, I didn't talk about James Gunn, I thought it was the studio. If I was Warner Brothers and I'm a Muslim, I wouldn't have like a Zionist or a pro-Israeli in my movie. But I want to tell them that like when I criticize Israel, I am not a threat to you as a Jew. And we can actually have more in common. That was more of a kind of empathic.

So when I said that, the internet went crazy. And you know, James Gunn have haters because you know the Snyder verse and all of the, it's a word that I don't understand. And James Gunn like had all of these attacks on him. And I was pissed of how it was handled. I wasn't angry at James Gunn, but I thought it was. So my publicist, I'm just like, Bassem, stay calm, don't speak.

It's better to not talk about it. I said, okay. So there's nothing wrong about me, but I see the heat is rising against James Gunn. And that is a guy that I had a personal connection with, even through Zoom. And I didn't like what was happening.

And then he called me and he explained to me, I said, Bassem, you know, I actually use, like have camera tests before people before finally, I didn't know that. And then we changed the script and it was the strike, so I didn't call. And also I thought to myself, I'm small, I'm a small actor. I'm not that important for him to call me to say we're gonna change the script.

So I still think that like the timing sucks and everything. But then I went and I did a video explaining exactly what I'm telling you because I didn't want to be famous for the wrong reasons. Because that would be unfair. Because that was, already people were, and I was having like interviews. Can you come about this? Like guys, that's it, I'm not gonna talk about it because this is a non-issue.

And I didn't, and when I talked to James on the phone, I felt how sincere he was. So I didn't want someone to, because of me, will have that kind of attack because I know what it means to be on the other side of that kind of attack. It's terrible. And it ruins your life and it ruins your day. And nobody deserves to be doing that.

And I don't want to be the reason for someone else to go through that pain.
