Disney has come under fire following the release of the trailer for its upcoming documentary on Amanda Knox. Critics argue that the film sensationalises her ordeal and exploits her traumatic experience for entertainment.
Controversial Portrayal
The trailer, which debuted recently, has been accused of focusing too heavily on the salacious aspects of Knox's wrongful conviction in Italy. Many viewers have taken to social media to express their discomfort, labelling the documentary as 'tone-deaf' and 'insensitive'.
Public Outcry
Amanda Knox herself has yet to comment on the backlash, but supporters have voiced concerns over the ethics of retelling such a painful chapter of her life. Some argue that the documentary risks reopening old wounds rather than shedding new light on the case.
Disney's Response
Disney has not publicly addressed the criticism, leaving many to wonder whether the final product will address these concerns. The documentary is set to premiere later this year, but the controversy has already cast a shadow over its release.
