Maybe this would make sense if Disney didn’t already have a film that highlights and celebrates actual African American culture. Is this not in some twisted way white washing? By just switching races of a popular princess They are literally erasing the origin of the fairytale. I agree with this. ⚯͛ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this isn’t the Anderson version is it? Just like Disney does with all they’re retellings of classic stories, things change. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magui 2,623 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I just hope the girl wears a red wig... That's the image that lives on my imagination since day one. I remember the few times they did little presentations at school, always red long wig. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

First they go with Melissa McCarthy when literally anyone else would’ve been better & now they go with this random a** “actress” who isn’t even the description of the character. Honestly if they were going to face bend the main role they should’ve went with Zendaya. But that isn’t a good way to judge a movie that hasn’t even been shot yet, and no you can’t say weather a movie is good based on casting cuz people can ALWAYS prove you wrong Literally everyone said Gaga was a bad choice for ASIB including many monsters who said she can’t act etc etc and then she got nominated for not one but two Oscars 🤷🏽♂️ Keep an open mind, you’ll enjoy stuff a lot more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Head Empty 24,260 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Disneys movies have never been exact copies of the story that they're based on. This is just another new interpretation.
