Why is a cuban playing a white person
Don't make no sense
shareShe might be Cuban, but she's white.
shareBut she's not American, which makes it cultural appropriation.
shareI don't think 'cultural appropriation' extends to skin colour (unless maybe you're in 'blackface', or 'whiteface', which as far as I know, Ana de Armas isn't).
shareI don't think it should either, but that's the way it works for white people who play anything but white characters. My comment was a snide and sarcastic one, not one of disagreement.
shareNot really,
White Americans play White Brits all the time
Black Brits play Black Americans all the time
This time, a White Cuban is playing a White American.
Thanks for playing.
A lot of Cubans are White, as she is.
sharemaybe because her skin is white
shareJohn Leguizamo should protest this but I doubt he does. His racism seems to only go one way.
shareMarilyn Monroe was black
