You can always adjust for it.  You may be surprised how it improves
the rest of your picture. Much as I like projected Fuji slides, they
have a high magenta content that comes through in spades on a scan.
Or try a new film. I find Agfachrome is much more neutral.

I am reminded that in elementary school we mixed purple and orange to
get brown when doing watercolors. So red is a definite component of
brown.
