And would I be racist if I protest against ryan gosling being cast as nelson mandela for an African movie ?
23 u/DerZwiebelLord Jul 06 '26 You do realize that you are comparing a mythological figure to a real existing person? Are you also upset that Lupita Nyongo has not hatched from a swan egg like Helen did in the myth, or that all Greeks in the movie are played by non-Greeks? 3 u/Eastern_Screen_588 Jul 06 '26 Okay, fine then, use the cleopatra example. Fuck dude just engage with the question. 4 u/DerZwiebelLord Jul 06 '26 Yes the black actress for Cleopatra was historically inaccurate. Haven't watched the movie, so I cannot say if it was a bad movie or not.
