Sia Says Her 'Music' Movie Will Come With A Warning Before The It Plays
Sia is breaking her silence about the controversies surrounding her upcoming movie, Music.
The film got a lot of backlash from fans after they realized the 45-year-old singer had cast Maddie Ziegler as an autistic teen.
Now, Sia has opened up to fans on Twitter and says that ahead of the movie, there will be a disclaimer on screen.
I promise, have been listening. The motion picture MUSIC will, moving forward, have this warning at the head of the movie:

MUSIC in no way condones or recommends the use of restraint on autistic people. There are autistic occupational therapists that specialize in sensory processing who can be consulted to explain safe ways to provide proprioceptive, deep-pressure feedback to help w meltdown safety.

Here’s a synopsis of the movie: Zu (Kate Hudson) is newly sober when she receives news that she is to become the sole guardian of her half-sister named Music (Ziegler), a young girl on the autism spectrum. The film explores two of Sia’s favorite themes: finding your voice and creating family.
Sia‘s tweets come hours after the movie was nominated for two Golden Globe awards. See the full list of nominations here…
