To all those who love to cry racist...let me ask you a question. If physical appearance doesnt matter to a characterization, then why stop at color? If were going to discount race, then we should also discount gender, age, and even body type. Why not cast Melissa McCarthy as Sue Storm? Who cares if shes obese? Its only her ACTING that matters right? How about Diane Keaton? Shed make a great Sue despite pushing 70. Nope. If either of those examples I used above happened, people who defend the casting of Michael B. Jordon would be the first ones complaining, Sue Storm isnt fat! Sue Storm isnt 70 years old! No, no she isnt. And Johnny Storm isnt black. See how that works? You dont cast an actor who is the wrong body type, or the wrong age, or the wrong gender, or the wrong COLOR.
