And it's already been answered. The studios are more okay with making white people into minorities than the vice versa because there's never been any shortage of roles for white actors in Hollywood, and certainly not a lack of white superheroes onscreen.


Really?

Because the Flash made the female lead and her father, both of whom are white in the comics, black. The show has been a huge hit for the CW and is already on its second season.

Elementary made Watson from the Sherlock Holmes novels into an Asian woman. It proved to be a big hit for CBS and is on its fourth season.

Daredevil has been one of the most critically acclaimed entries in the whole MCU, and it made Ben Urich black and cast an Asian woman as Elektra.

The Battlestar Galactica reboot is one of the most critically acclaimed sci-fi shows of all time, and it made Boomer Asian and Starbuck into a woman.

Smallville, despite being crappy, made Pete Ross black and cast an Asian woman as Lana Lang, the female lead. It made it to ten seasons.

True Blood was a massive success for HBO and made one of the major characters, Tara, black.

Arrow is on its fourth season and has a Maori actor from New Zealand playing Deathstroke, who is supposed to be a white American.

The Shawshank Redemption was one of the most critically acclaimed movies of the 90's and won multiple Oscar nominations, and it had Morgan Freeman playing a main character who was a redheaded Irishman in the novel.

And the response to the first Suicide Squad trailer has been very positive despite a black man playing Deadshot.

How many MCU movies have we had now with Sam Jackson as Nick Fury?

But wait...how can that be? It's almost like most of the people watching it really don't care about that!



I wanna see the new Legends Scarlet Witch that was allegedly shown at Nuremberg.

You still haven't given a valid reason to change a person's race in a movie.... Why can't drew carey play Black Panther???? why is that a NO NO but johnny storm, jimmy olsen, deadshot and so fourth can be ?? you have no answer simply as that.... let's stop this topic before a mod jumps in an starts banning people.
