Please do not conflate the two — And none of it will be brought to the set. I deeply enjoy filming NWT and hope we are chosen to go on for a fourth season.”What started the issue was Feldshuh’s response to Brody’s comments.Brody told GQ last month, “Put me down as thinking it’s a genocide. Put me down as wanting a free Palestine.”The 46-year-old, who is Jewish, added, “It’s awful that it’s taken so much death and misery, but it does feel like it’s reaching a breaking point that it should have a while ago. I’m hopeful that another administration can really do some good and correct some of these policies that are helping that situation be as awful as it is.”The 77-year-old plays Bina, mother to Brody’s Rabbi Noah Roklov, pushed back at Brody’s recent comments.“To accuse the Jewish people of genocide is wild,” Feldshuh, who is Jewish, told The New York Post on Monday. “It’s right out of Hitler’s playbook. You take the victim and you make the victim the perpetrator.”She previously said that she would not let it impact their work on the show.“My job, as Bina but also as Tovah, is to love the people on set at my place of work, to be kind,” she said.Mark Heim is a senior writer who provides sports, news and trending content.
