Netflix has resumed advertising on X following a suspension by the streamer and other brands after Elon Musk was met with intense backlash for promoting and agreeing with a post that glorified an antisemitic conspiracy theory, TheWrap has learned.

The New York Times reported last month that Netflix halted nearly $3 million worth of ads, citing X estimates. But TheWrap has come across posts by Netflix advertising its films “Maestro” and “May December.”

When asked for comment, an X spokesperson confirmed to TheWrap that Netflix has resumed advertising on the platform. Representatives for Netflix did not immediately return TheWrap’s request for comment.
