She went on to call out the film’s stars Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci, and John Lithgow, as well as director Edward Berger, saying, “Shame on Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci & John Lithgow for starring in it, and shame on director Edward Berger (among others).”
In a post that included a significant spoiler, Kelly revealed her biggest issue with the movie’s plot: “Spoiler: They make THE POPE INTERSEX! This is the big exciting twist at the end. I wish I had known so I wouldn’t have watched it.”
Her comments have sparked a mix of reactions online, further amplifying the conversation around the controversial film.
She didn’t stop there, criticizing the timing of the film’s release. “What a thing to release to streaming just in time for Christmas,” she fumed. “They would never do this to Muslims, but Christians/Catholics are always fair game to mock, belittle, and smear.”
Kelly’s fiery comments were posted just hours before the Golden Globes ceremony at the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Los Angeles, where Conclave is expected to be a major contender.
