Hey Margot, why not put your money where your mouth is and give up your role to a woman of color? (especially a trans woman of color).

“Even though a large majority of comic book characters are white (and male), studios are looking to update characters to better represent the current state of the world.... Not only did she want Yan to direct, but previous reports noted the desire for an all-female crew during production.”

Diversity=no white men.

The only thing diverse about Power Girl is that she has humongous boobs.

How come the NBA doesn’t embrace diversity to better reflect the rich ethnic makeup of America???

After all, diversity makes you stronger!

Aren’t you supposed to produce a product that entices your core consumer group to come out from their homes and spend their money on the product?

Comet boot movies generally are seen by white adolescent males - who else would have any interest in that crap?

There’s more attention on who is being hired for Hollywood’s biggest films than ever before.


But those people aren’t your paying customers............

I'm sorry, Barbara Gordon IS The Birds of Prey.

She created the group as part of her journey recovering from DC's most horrific moment.



She needs to be the center of the movie, not Harley Quinn.

Comic book movies are increasingly anti-white male. Same with Star Wars.

Yes; all movies could use more conservatives. That is the diversity she means right?

Robbie wants the people chosen to reflect the real world

She's too dumb to understand this is fiction.

I haven't been to the movies since 2011 and only saw one movie that year, one the year before, one the year before that...

Leftists want to ruin everything. They would rather be seen as virtuous hiring people that look different than they do, not based on any talent whatsoever. Why don't minorities realize that leftists see them as incredibly stupid and incapable of doing anything on their own?

“Jason Momoa’s Aquaman, for example, is very different from the traditional Arthur Curry look.”

I don’t see Jason Moma as a nod to “diversity”.

Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman is their highest grossing and best critically received movie.

And it was, at best, a pretty good movie. That tells you how bad it's been for DC films.

Meanwhile, Suicide Squad introduced Robbie as Harley Quinn, and the film still made over $700 million at the box office despite a critical lashing.

A well-deserved lashing. I can only hope they lost a fortune on that piece of crap. They probably didn't, though.

Huntress is also a candidate to appear and is ethnically ambiguous in the comics.

Really? Huntress is the daughter of Batman & catwoman..they're both pretty Caucasian the last I checked!
