Hollywood Doesn't Want White Actors, Say Movie Execs

Print is dying in all forms.
Thats not the issue, Indie comics are succeeding more then mainstream comics.

They want to treat minority actors and actresses with respect and give them more opportunities?

Race swapping characters is not giving them respect or opportunities.

Hows that Dr Who series going?

The first season with the current doctor wasn’t that great… but honestly outside of David Tennant that is pretty much the norm.

I did like the last season though when they returned to formula.

Dr Who is actually dying when its coming to ratings alot of fans old and new dropped it not a surprise you are actually supporting the newer one.

There was nothing wrong with the old actor.

I bet you were mad when they made Spider-Man black.

Spider man is white. It’s in the Bible.

Anything produced out of Hollywood in today society is 100% crap. Let alone unoriginal race changing of characters and calling it “New”

Its clear Hollywood is dying of its writers who cant write a good story anymore.Its no wonder why they are making a series on the video games they lack Ideas.

I disagree.

We are in the golden age of really good long form drama series being made right now.

But we are going to get really chaste rom coms for at least a year and half until COVID -19 gets under control… so be prepared for disappointment for at least a year and a half.

They are better able to adapt.

Plus usually indie comics are able to take many more risks.

The properties aren’t as established

According to Movie Execs they dont want anymore white actors or white guys in movies anymore. I am not sure how this helps creates the illison of “Diverse” or helps end racism by creating more racism. But if Hollywood goes with this. I dont see how Hollywood walks out of it. Financially successfully.

In Calif they are already getting rid of white voices and wont allow white voice actors to voice “Diverse characters” which in my opinion is idiotic.

Source

From the video or article that they are quoting from.

I can tell you, we are hiring people based purely on ethnicity, gender and social media profiles.
If you are brown and female and gay then come on in. We are al getting diversity hiring/gaining.

I dont see how this is acceptable by just hiring people of their race, or social media profile this is wrong. They should be hiring based on their qualifications not identity.

Movies are written for white actors.
its not going to change.

Dr. Who has been “Dying” for 20 years.

I didn’t like Capaldi’s first season.

I do like Whitaker. She is a fantastic actor.

I do hope that this run of the doctor breaks with tradition and eschews the thing where the companions get totally screwed for dramatic effect.

That gets old.

HBO’s Watchmen was excellent.

Some of the most compelling television made in a while.

It was a good build on the source material and takes a new look at something that has been around for a couple of decades.

It was also pretty “woke”

If the story is good and done well, then people will enjoy it.

The thing is that 95% of the media that is produced is crap.

It was excellent. I hear they might make a season 2. I thought they could stop after season 1… but I am not against it

There doesn’t need to any more.

The ending was perfect.

I don’t want that question answered.

Only one on this list that I’ve seen is Uncut Gems. While I usually love Adam Sandler, Uncut Gems was just horrible.

What makes Hollywood think that Woke Movies, series that had being swapped for a “Interest” would succeed?

HBO has been killing it the last few years.
TV has been in a golden era the last few years.

I was thinking they could do a prequel. That could work.

She walked, btw

People still watch HBO? Hell, I quit watching them years ago.

He played a unique role for him. I thought he did excellent stepping outside of his norm. I thought the ending was horrible
