“Sound of Hope” director Josh Weigel and producer Rebekah Weigel of Peacetree Productions apologized Friday to their film’s executive producer, “Black Panther” star Letitia Wright, after she publicly decried the Angel Studios film for aligning itself with conservative news site the Daily Wire during its distribution.

But as they apologized to Wright, they also defended their relationship with the Daily Wire, saying they “are deeply grateful for the tireless support” from the outlet and its hosts, including cofounder Ben Shapiro and prominent contributor Matt Walsh.

“Letitia Wright has championed this project with us, even choosing not to accept compensation for the sake of the cause.
