What might have happened behind the scenes is not and it is hoped that it should not detract from our intentions in making this film. It’s been disheartening to see how much negativity is being projected online.”

Sklenar, 34, continued, “Ultimately it’s meant to spread love and awareness. It’s not meant to make the girls the ‘bad guy’ again, let’s move beyond that together. All I ask is, before you spread hate on the internet, ask yourself who is helping. Ask yourself if your opinion is based on any fact. Or if you want to be part of something. Let’s be part of something better together. Part of a new story being written for women and everyone everywhere.”
