Petition Calls for Maze Runner Cast to Apologize to Native Americans

In the interview, which can be viewed below, O’Brien, who plays Thomas in the series, said they were given specific instructions about not getting things from the site in New Mexico where they shot scenes for the film. They were very strict about littering and ‘Don’t take any artefacts…’ and everyone just takes stuff (anyway). So this has all brought the maze runner the scorch trials movie on top again this weekend but The martian has just by passed the Maze runner 2 the scorch trials and you have to watch maze runner the scorch trials online free.

Hart said he called 20th Century Fox, the film’s distributor, on Tuesday to see if it would offer any assistance, and a few hours later he was told Fox would reach out to the cast and crew.

During an appearance on “Live with Kelly and Michael” last month, O’Brien said cast members took artifacts from the private ranch north of Albuquerque, despite warnings not to do so. “Please publicly apologize to Pueblo community leaders and return what you stole”. “Respect the grounds”, the actor said.

The cast have been asked to apologise to angry fans, after the franchise’s 24-year-old star Dylan O’Brien admitted to stealing from a Native American burial ground. A 19-year-old fan named Maeve Cunningham has started a Care2 petition demanding that OBrien, director Wes Ball, and others apologize.

O’Brien’s statement came in response to a question from the show’s cohost, Michael Strahan, asking why so many cast members were sick during filming, implying that the illnesses were incurred by the theft. He then went on to mention that five actors fell ill within one week of leaving the site, jokingly alluding to the idea that a Native American curse had punished them for it.

Kelly Ripa gasps and says: ‘Did the Brady Bunch teach you nothing?’ in reference to an episode when the characters are cursed by an ancient artifact. “Native American rights are important to me, and hearing someone who you have a lot of respect for completely disregard someone else’s culture and basic human rights in such a disrespecting manner was just this big letdown for me”, she told The Wrap.
