So I can hire Toby McGuire to play Sammy Davis jr and nobody will be mad?
Comment on “This script is fantastic. Let’s get Julia Roberts to play Harriet Tubman.”

If the skin colour isn’t relevant to the story, it doesn’t matter. If it is relevant, it does.

Jesus was a Palestinian, so it’s ok to take Arab jobs and give em to black actors? Cleopatra was Greek/arab so I guess they can take their roles too.
It’s funny how everyone who isn’t black is suddenly white when it’s convenient. This isn’t black actors taking the roles of white Americans, it’s black actors playing Egyptians, Greeks, arabs, latinos, Asians. Are all those people white??
