Rapper/actor Ice Cube reportedly left the forthcoming film โ€œOh Hell Noโ€ and his $9 million salary over the movie studioโ€™s COVID-19 vaccine mandate. What are your thoughts?

Nicole Jackson, Jacksonville, Fla.
Choices. We all have them.

Kelly Redmon, Houston
Cube has [his film and television production company] CubeVision. He doesnโ€™t need Sony. He writes, produces, acts and rap. Heโ€™s self-made. You canโ€™t buy Ice Cube โ€” he told you in [his album] โ€œAmeriKKKaโ€™s Most Wanted.โ€

Brandy Johnson, Dallas
I support anyoneโ€™s right not to take the vaccine. As long as they arenโ€™t harming others with reckless behavior or citing misinformation about the vaccine, weโ€™re good. This was his choice and he accepted the consequences. Whatโ€™s the problem?

Rod Houston, Washington, D.C.
Find new stars. They are out there. Hollywood gets lazy, giving roles to the same olโ€™ people.

Alan Bowen, Washington, D.C.
He can do what he wants to do. He has money. Not the choice I would make, but clearly he feels strongly about this.
