If it doesn't matter if he's black or white, why does it matter if he's white?

Why can’t Paul Reubens play Winder Woman?

Perhaps Henry Cavill can play the Black Panther next?

I’d like to see Madonna recreate the role of Shaft...

Wot?

I thought this was all about diversity?

Would this not be considered as “cultural appropriation”?

Because for 70+ years Superman has been white. Are you saying people can change their race now? That would be really whack.

If they want a black Superman they would need to introduce him as a completely new character leaving the existing white Superman intact. I suppose they could kill off the white Superman so then there would only be the new black Superman without any of the history of white Superman.

Black Superman could be Bizarro. It would complete the entire opposite thing.

Nope. I've been a lurker on FR for years, thought I would sign up yesterday and join in all the fun.

I’m sure Wesley Snipes will approve Bruce Wahlberg playing Blade. :)

It’s like the role of Hermione in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. There’d be hell to pay if they put a white actress in the role now.

And I sadly know we’ve seen the last White male (or maybe even British) Doctor Who. (I refuse to watch the upcoming time lady)

I want to see a ‘re-imagining’ of MLK Jr.s life story with a > brave, young lesbian Korean woman < playing the role.

And then watch the left go to war with itself.

Would his name still be Clark Kent or Kunta Kinte Kent?

How about a "Roots" redo with Daniel Radcliffe as Kunta Kinte.
