Actress Jodie Sweetin spoke out after her new film was sold unknowingly to the Great American Family network (GAC Family) which excludes same-sex couples from their movies.
In an exclusive statement to People, Sweetin, 41, who starred in the upcoming movie “Craft Me a Romance,” expressed her disapproval of Great American Family buying the film.
“Sometimes, we, as actors, don’t have control over which network buys the projects we are in, nor are we a part of the process in which they get sold,” she said. “So I was very surprised to learn by reading about it in the press yesterday that the independent film I worked on over a year ago was sold to Great American Family.”
She continued, “I am disappointed, but in keeping with my mission of supporting the LGBTQ+ family, any potential or future money made from this sale will be donated to LGBTQ+ organizations.”

In November 2022, Sweetin’s “Full House” co-star Candace Cameron Bure, 47, told the Wall Street Journal, she left the Hallmark Channel because she believed “Great American Family will keep traditional marriage at the core,” after being asked whether there will be any same-sex couples featured as leads in their holiday films.
