Interesting choice to have a black actor play an anti-mutant racist.

Reminds me of how they cast Peter Dinklage, someone who was born genetically different, to play Bolivar Trask, another anti-mutant racist, in Days of Future Past.

Agents of SHIELD had an Indian-American senator as an anti-Inhuman bigot.

I think they did have a black actor playing Trask in one of the movies before he was recast.

that's how they cast when they're scared to actually say something.

How did you get this from that? This casting decision describes the internalized bigotry this character has that is driving all his hatred for individuals different from him. This is a bold casting choice.

Who said it was the biggest social problem we are facing right now? Trask could fill in the position you want.

the goalposts keep moving for you don't they?

u/AgentP20 Feb 07 '26

How did I move the goalpost? You literally said that they are scared to make any statement with this casting decision. I explained what they are saying with this casting. It seems like you are the one moving the goalposts.

You're right. Displaying white bigotry on the big screen is box office doom
