Guest Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 https://www.harpersbazaar.com/culture/film-tv/a35482868/jodie-turner-smith-anne-boleyn/ What is going on? What do you think about the cast? I think that in historical movies you shouldn't do changes like that. This is just surreal! Now I am waiting for black Hitler, white Nelson Mandela and white Black Panther Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadioIsOurs 13,835 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 When you want diversity but you don't want to have bipoc writers to write about their own experiences and stories this is what you get lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that someone long ago made stupid and racist things means we have to repeat them, this time polarizing? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NFRatwell 23,290 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 The director is a white woman I just don’t get it because there are plenty of real black stories that go without media representation. Making white historical figures black doesn’t give you real historical representation. Same thing with the Cleopatra movies and representation.

Same thing with the Cleopatra movies and representation. but i'm telling you, Anne Boleyn was a fierce ass kween that played her cards wrong in the end, she was ahead of her time and she gave birth to one of the most important women in history that changed the curse of the entire world (Queen Elizabeth the 1st) I loved how Natalie Portman portrayed her So if i get a another movie about her, i'm not complaining i'm perchedt and it looks like its already done so it should come very soon! this is gunna b good Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teletubby 136,862 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 No one would talk about this TV series. This actress is just used for controversy. "A rat is a rat" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FATCAT 59,068 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 It's a movie, not a documentary. It's not meant to be a historical record, it's an artistic interpretation of the era. I think people are far too stiff with things like this. If the director wants to cast a POC, it's their art, let them.
