Amazon Studios scandal

Amazon Studios were shaken in October, 2017 when Roy Price, who was head of the studio, was fired following a suspension over sexual harassment allegations. After he was out, the next person to leave the studios was Joe Lewis, his top lieutenant who was Head of Half Hour and Drama Series Development. It was a disappointing course of events as Lewis was promoted to that position just one year before the scandal – before that, he was overseeing development of half-hour series such as “Transparent” and the Golden Globe winning “Mozart in the Jungle”.

His girlfriend Yara was somehow connected to all of this, because there was a potential conflict of interest-influenced decisions as she was cast in Amazon’s “The Tick” TV series.

Comic Con

Yara went to her first Comic Con on 21 August 2017, during which she was interviewed by Joe Deckelmeier for the “screenrant” web portal, mostly talking about her role in “The Tick” – she played Ms. Lint who is ‘electric’ as that is her superpower, she can shoot electricity and fry people ‘like a pizza pocket’. One thing which Yara found funny was that she had a simple costume with only a bit of makeup, while all the guys had tons of makeup and had more complicated costumes to wear. She claims how she loved everyone in the cast, which is not something that happens very often, however, this team was just right for her and she was happy to spend some time with them during this comic con as they didn’t get to hang out much during the shooting of the series.

According to authoritative sources, Yara’s net worth is estimated to be over $1 million, all of which she’s earned from her roles in movies and TV series.

Social media presence

Yara cares about her social media appearance, but on the other hand, she doesn’t take it that seriously – she is quite popular on Instagram as she is followed by 85,000 people, and has posted nearly 500 times.

She has a Facebook page as well although she hasn’t been active since 29 August 2017, but still has 1,000 followers.

As she said in an interview, most of the time Yara doesn’t read the comments on her pictures or on her Twitter posts – she loves to see something funny and says how it is weird that it is normal on social media platforms to say ‘Oh my god, I love you so much, I’m gonna die!’ while that would be so scary if someone said it in the street. She still thinks it is all fun and games as she never has any problems with her fans.
