From yesterday's show. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ttfvy3uv4w (14m)

Piers Morgan Uncensored is joined by actor and wrestler Dylan 'Hornswoggle' Postl and comedian and LGBT activist James Barr to debate the diverse casting of Disney's live action remake of Snow White and The Seven Dwarves - which only features one actor with dwarfism.

Dylan, who has dwarfism, explains that it is already hard enough for actors in his community to get roles as they can only really play characters like dwarves, leprechauns and elves - so to take the few options they have away from them is distasteful. He uses Hugh Grant playing an Oompa Loompa with the help of CGI in the upcoming 'Wonka' film as another example of this.

Piers then slams James' take that this very diverse set of actors playing the dwarves is progressive, as it is restricting a different minority, that being of dwarf actors and that James' stance 'stinks' of "woke hypocrisy".

What is with the onslaught of Disney live action remakes? No original thought at all?

They're overlooking many talented writers, I'm sure, in their quest to remake everything now.

It's this "woke", warped way of thinking nowadays. They don't even realize the harm that's being caused by their efforts to be "inclusive"!

I tried to bring out this point to someone else on another thread and was accused of wanting separatism 🤣🤣🤣

James Barr was clearly just there to argue. He didn’t have a real opinion other than to argue anything Piers said, and agree with anything Dylan said. Which is strange because they were saying the same thing. I’m glad they called him out on it.

He also tried to attack Piers by saying Warwick Davis said he doesn’t like people being offended for him, but Warwick Davis brought up this same point when no dwarves were casted for Snow White and the Huntsman.

Ol’ Peter Dinklage disagrees with Postl. Of course little about his rant and knowledge of the dwarves in the animated film was accurate. He thought they were all living in a cave which he found offensive.

Now little people actors are pissed at him: https://www.indiewire.com/features/general/peter-dinklage-snow-white-and-the-seven-dwarfs-backlash-little-people-1234695983/
