NFRatwell 23,290 Posted June 30, 2020 Share Posted June 30, 2020 Gaga would be great but I think lots of people are tired of hearing the Cleopatra story, especially when there are so many other Egyptian queens deserving of movies. If they do go on with Cleopatra though I think Gaga would fit. I mean who better to play a Roman Empire figure than an Italian (American) woman anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you seen the movies of the director, they are super visual and majestic... Plus probably the story will be a totally different one, thats why its a science fiction political thriller...

The country and the culture she's from haven't existed in 2000 years Also Italy is right next to Greece. Literally the same people lived in both countries. At that time Greece and Egypt were both part of the Roman Empire which obviously had it's center in Italy. This is not an issue like white people portraying other races. There is no discrimination against Greek actresses so there is no need to demand film makers to cast a Greek actress for a role like Cleopatra.
