Remake of cinematic masterpiece “Amadeus” to feature Asian Mozart
Not The Bee ^ | October 15, 2025 | Holly Ash

Yep.

Official 'TEASER' at link.............

Amadeus, the 1985 Milos Forman- directed masterpiece, is being remade.

They replaced the inimitable Tom Hulce with a half-Japanese British citizen name Will Sharpe, because that totally makes sense for the Austrian Mozart?

Meanwhile, F. Murray Abraham's Salieri is being replicated by that robot guy in the Avengers movies.

I'm sure this will turn out great! Here's just a few of the reactions:

Just ... why???

From the photo they might have been further ahead to do an Asian Seinfeld.

Gender swapping Matlock, now race swapping Mozart.

Ever notice how these swaps are one way? Will we ever have a white Martin Luther King movie?

I am waiting for a Scandinavian to play Confucius in the movie-bio.

It would be the best portrayal of an Asian since Mickey Rooney as Mr. Yunioshi, John Wayne as Genghis Khan, Susan Hayward as Bortai the Tartar Woman, and Boris Karloff as Charlie Chan.

How about Taylor Swift as Billie Holiday in the remake of “Lady Sings The Blues”.

In 50 years, people will be saying Amadeus was Asian, like how blacks claim Jews were black.

well here’s the thing— no reason to insult black folk because black people don’t make movies. black people don’t run Hollywood. Every now and again a black fellow is allowed to release a movie but he has to go through a lot of hoops. Make a black Albert Einstein or Moses. That’s more like it. Black Moses

They should do a remake of Shaka Zulu with Greta Thunberg in the title role.
It makes perfect sense.
And I will never watch it.

These people do not care about customers and viewers. This Hollywood is nothing but organized tax evasion and money laundering.
