Regency era England, LOL.
Multicultural cast pretending as if it were normal in an England set a few decades before the Slavery Abolition Act 1833.π
Yep... when I watched the trailer I knew instantly it wasn't worth watching. If I'm watching Roots I expect black actors to play the parts of the black characters.. if I watch a movie on the Ming dynasty I expect to see Chinese actors. This casting makes as much sense as casting Melisa McCarthy and James Corden to play character in a concentration camp during the holocaust. I refuse to watch woke shit that was cast by a quota system.
The sad thing is if you were to do the "color blind" casting of Roots the liberal cunts would be up in arms at the "cultural misappropriating" that was going on. The hypocrisy is what kills them.
The hypocrisy is detestable, theyβll be out with pitchforks again when Gal Gadotβs Cleopatra is released, all falsely claiming its historic whitewashing of a black African Queen.
shareWhy stop at casting black actors and actresses in a setting they would hardly feature in? Let's have some disabled people in wheelchairs in their corsets fanning themselves.
shareYou say that in jest, but I remember a few years back the woke warriors at Disney's California Adventure hired a lady in a wheelchair to be in their stage production of Aladdin... So they are dumb enough to do that type of thing and it was just as jarring as you would expect to see someone in a wheelchair moving about in a musical/play in a story where no wheelchairs would have existed.
