    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.

    That makes it worse tbh

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

          The entire point of making a movie, yep.

          Because there’s not enough diversity in marvel, nope

          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.
