Netflix apologized on Friday after being accused by Internet users of “hypersexualizing” children in a visual used to promote the French film “Mignonnes”, which the platform broadcasts outside of France.
Strongly challenged by Internet users, the platform announced that it had withdrawn the controversial poster. It showed the protagonists of the film (renamed “Cuties” in the US market), pre-teens, in tight-fitting outfits and in suggestive poses.
