Do you think it's fine that white people play Persians, Egyptians, and Asians in Hollywood films?

Seems to me, these liberals are the real hypocrites. They think anyone questioning the casting of a black guy over a arab is racist, and then go and cry racism over white people playing "their" roles.

What happened to "the best actor should play the part"?

Bunch of double standard hypocrites.

The producers of the movie had worked with the actor in 2009. They liked him. They wanted him in the movie.

Nothing happened. The best actor did play the part.

Having a black man acting DOES NOT necessarily mean political correctness.

I'm a very political incorrect guy and find that some people just take it too far, way too far.
