About a dozen Native American actors recently walked off the set of Adam Sandler’s latest film, “Ridiculous Six,” because they thought the film — described as a satire of Westerns and the stereotypes popularized in the genre — was offensive and a misrepresentation of Apache culture.

Now, a video from a cellphone has surfaced of the film’s producer telling the actors, dressed in fringed clothing, that if they’re “overly sensitive” then they should “probably leave.”

The actors were trying to get the producer to change the script, which includes two characters named Beaver’s Breath and No Bra, and the producer explained to them that the film was meant to be disrespectful.

“You’re trying to tell a Native what’s disrespectful?” one actor said. “We don’t need to sell out our people.”

“If you are overly sensitive about it, then you should probably leave,” the producer said. “We don’t want to offend anyone.”

One of the guys who is threatening to leave the set says he “won’t just walk off,” but will hold a press conference. Another threatens that “it’s gonna blow up” and “it’s not going to be good.” (RELATED: Liberal Indian War On Adam Sandler Is A Political Hit Job)
