(Patti Perret/Universal Pictures via AP)NEW YORK, N.Y. ā Last fall, the violent satire āThe Huntā became ensnarled by some of the very politics it so playfully parodies.
Universal Pictures pulled āThe Huntā from release after a series of deadly shootings and wave of right-wing criticism, including from President Trump.

āWe were living through a version of what happens in āThe Hunt,ā in a way,ā says Zobel.
