The people who made the casting choice were told by Disney they couldn’t cast either, it was that or get replaced by someone else who would play ball.

It’s ridiculous to expect them to remove themselves from a multimillion dollar project that would get done anyway with or without them.

Eh, they weren’t happy about it but were caught between a rock and a hard place, I can sympathise.

The only one of these that is remotely acceptable, to me, is Tilda Swindon, because they explicitly detached themselves from the character to avoid getting shat on by the CCP for casting a Tibetan and from Americans for casting a Chinese person.

The others are all crap, IMO.

Every time a character is <color>washed we lose the chance to be exposed to global actors that would fit their profile.

Tbf most could do it for cheaper with a dartboard and some post-its

Meh, I can see that, my dad is the same way, the trick is he hardly uses one and treats it like an OSHA situation when he’s operating it.

TBH it’s not the worst habit to have.

I think every single person on lemmy might have posted in the thread. Hello, Montagge!
