Tom Holland and Francesca Amewudah-Rivers are Romeo and Juliet in the West End production of Shakespeare's classic play.

Holland, who was announced to be a part of the production in February, will play Romeo Montague, and Amewudah-Rivers will play Juliet Capulet in the Jamie Lloyd-directed version of the beloved play about the forbidden romance between two young adults from feuding families.

A description for Lloyd's play calls his take a "pulsating new vision of Shakespeare's immortal tale of wordsmiths, rhymers, lovers and fighters."

Amewudah-Rivers took to Instagram on Thursday to share the news about being in the play.

"Crazy things are happening," she wrote in the caption of her post. "See y'all in Verona."

Cultural appropriation is racist!

Except when blacks are doing the appropriating. Then it’s OK.

“ Italian women are swarthier than I expected.”

As Dennis Hopper explained to Christopher Walken in “True Romance”.

Men played Women’s roles in Shakespeare’s day. Women were forbidden from playing.
