Louis Theroux has revealed that a comment he made about the genocide in Gaza was cut from his Netflix documentary series. The filmmaker, known for his immersive documentaries, made the remark during an interview for his show 'Louis Theroux: Life on the Edge'.
Theroux said the comment was removed during the editing process, though he did not specify the exact wording. The series, which aired on Netflix in 2022, looks back at his career and features interviews with past subjects.
The director's latest film, 'The Settlers', focuses on Israeli settlers in the West Bank and has gone viral. Theroux said the response has been 'humbling', but noted that the ongoing displacement and intimidation of Palestinians is more severe than the film could capture.
In the film, Theroux interviews settlers like Daniella Weiss, who promotes Jewish-only settlements in Gaza and advocates for Palestinians to leave. The film has sparked widespread discussion about the situation in the occupied territories.
