Racists’ heads to explode in 3, 2, 1....
Why only black? Why not multiracial or Latino or Asian or Middle Eastern or mixed? 🤷🏻♀️
Why does there need to be black Superman?
Why must everything be redone and redefined?
Why not create a new character?
Same goes for movie remakes - i.e. the awful Ghost Buster girls version.
If they want a black super-hero, they should create a new one, not mess with one who’s had a white identity for more than sixty years.
This is cultural appropriation.....
Why?
Anyone remember when Al Capp tried a black version of Li’ll Abner? It didn’t work.
Handyman!!!
“Faster than a bowl of chit’lins! Able to leap over slums in a single bound! ‘Look—up in the sky!’ ‘It’s a crow!’ ‘It’s a bat!’ No, it’s Supern****r! Yes, friends: Supern****r! With X-Ray vision that can see through everything except Whitey!”DC already has a black Superman too, with secret identity Calvin Ellis.
— Richard Pryor, “Supern****r”
Well, I don’t know why they’re searching so hard.
They’ve got 2-3 already.
Let’s see: There’s Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson...and they could bring out Charles Rangel out of retirement.
Yeah, yeah....they’ve already got black supermen. /s
And the Oscar for blackest actor goes to ...
Coates has never written a good comic book let alone a Superman one. This movie is never going to happen anyway , it took years and a handful of scripts and directors just to start work on a Flash movie. If Black Superman ever comes out I’d be legitimately surprised
Search? Why? Shaquille O’Neal is right there. They can film the movie in the same bottomless pit their profits will fall into, and save time and money. Go “Woke” go broke.
Audiences don’t particularly cares about the character’s outside, they care about the character’s inside.
Make it a Tranny.
That will really help the brand name. /LOL
All superheroes now come from Wakanda.
Why not just keep him white?
I think this calls for a trilogy: a black Superman, an Asian Black Panther, and the Rock playing Supergirl.
